Wet Habitat Restoration

Nature Recovery Award for Wet Habitat Restoration

Mayes Park was awarded the Wilder Horsham District’s Nature Recovery Award for wet habitat restoration, with over 1.3 km of land drains being broken up and 350m removed completely. This has created a series of ponds and scrapes where the water wells up from the broken drains, which together with a series of new and restored larger ponds have completely transformed the landscape.
