This naturalisation work using targeted stream reconnection and on-site large wood is a delight, illustrating how self sustaining anastomosing ( ‘stage zero’ if you prefer) networks can be encouraged. Major credit to Ullswater Catchment Management CIC and the landowner.
Forgot to acknowledge Jen Selvidge at RSPB England who took the flowing water wetland image and these additional ones at the RSPB Geltsdale reserve.
Just been directed to these messages from James Rebanks . Well worth reading these as they provide a comprehensive and candid assessment of rewetting on a working farm...
