Crane Park - Water vole habitat creation
With Richmond Weekday Projects
At Crane Park, Hospital Bridge Road Entrance
Activity description
We will be working along the edge of the River Crane (off Hospital Bridge Road) to remove bramble, reinstate a ditch system and create a bund as habitat for water voles. For those not keen to get messy, we will also be clearing the path side wetland scrapes of bramble. This project is in partnership with FORCE and LBRuT. Creating a ditch and bund along the river will provide new habitat for the water vole, who create burrows in river banks. The ditch system will also create a floodplain for river water to expand into during periods of high rain fall. We have a selection of waders available, but most of them are bigger sizes (7 and upwards). So if you are like me and you have smaller feet, you will need a few extra socks to work in these waders. Be prepared to get muddy.
