The existing wooden flow deflectors installed between 2002 and 2003 were insufficient in their attempts to enhance flow diversity. The project successfully narrowed the river through the construction of artificial berms mimicking those found naturally and the excavation of pools.

Accordingly, although early days, it seems that the Nar SSSI project can be viewed as a successful low-cost ‘quick win’ project in a constrained site.
