| Aim: |
We rescued a carr woodland from destruction, and created public access with boardwalks, bridges, pathways. We planted a new wood with 2.500 native trees with public access. We restored Constable Doles S.S.S.I. back into a cattle grazed marsh with the support of Natural England. Our aims are to create public access where possible and provide for biodiversity in Acle. |
