Work in The Glade

30th May 2013

WORK IN THE GLADE.

Trust members have been very busy digging out the pond and building another dam, as we have found that the previous dam was situated in the wrong place, causing the pond to silt up. The dam has now been rebuilt up stream so that the water falls over into the pond keeping it from silting up. 
 
It is now looking a lot better, although a lot more digging is needed to get it looking right. We are hoping that we will be getting it a little deeper to allow for some waterplants can be reestablished. We are hoping to get this area looking beautiful, so that The Ore Church Mice nursery school and hopefully other groups of children and families can come down and enjoy a picnic by the pond.
