Natural England

Wednesday, April 26th 2023

On Monday, a team of staff from Natural England lent a hand in dismantling part of the covered boardwalk that leads to the Wetland Hide. The structure is over 10 years old and has recently become a safety hazard to visitors and volunteers alike as the wooden timbers begin to rot.

The group worked hard all morning dismantling the structure.

The planks were carried out of the way and all nails removed in the new outside 'workshop'!

The team enjoyed a guided walk around the reserve in the afternoon and weren't put off by the hailstones!

Thank you for all your hard work.
