Swelling Hill Pond Maintenance Project

Back in October 2019 a maintenance project was undertaken that was pumped out of the pond.  The de-silting project was completed early December having been severely hampered by the unprecedented winter rainfall.

Subsequent works have included the installation of steps and further tree removal works.   This year will see further renovation works to the pond to re-shore the banks and a new tree planting plan to replace those lost.

A wildlife information sign is currently in production.
