Run-off mitigation at a site in the Wensum River Catchment
In Autumn 2019, the Water Sensitive Farming Initiative funded the creation of a 3-pool wetland to filter farmland and road run-off, before it enters the Wensum. The pools were planted with native wetland species in June 2020. As well as improving water quality, the wetland will provide a valuable freshwater habitat, and “slow the flow” of water.
