We are working with contractors from @ebsford to restore a 550m section of the Alder Brook in Tudor Grange Park – removing the concrete lined channel to restore the brook to a more natural state. With funding support from the @EnvAgencyMids and ERDF.

Works to restore a section of the Alderbrook in Brueton Park LNR are continuing with over 100m³ of concrete removed from the channel. Pond creation will increase water storage capacity in the area whilst providing important wildlife habitat. @WKWT @EnvAgency
