〽️Project: Wern Reserve
We have recently completed works as part of the Montgomery Canal restoration, creating an offline wet nature reserve adjacent to and connected with the canal near Wern, Powys.
The reserve is just under a hectare in area with water depths varying from shallows up to 1.5m to provide habitat for varied aquatic flora and fauna. The reserve has been created within a pasture field with much of the excavated material used to form natural mounds surrounding the new ponds. A small reinforced concrete channel connects the reserve to the canal to control water ingress and egress.
