Boardwalk and dipping platform installation at Palace Road Nature Garden, Brixton Hill, SW2 3NJ
With Biodiversity Action Team (South London)
At Palace Road Nature Garden
Activity description
We return to Palace Road Nature Garden to carry out some essential works on the main pond, which has now developed quite a few serious leaks. This week we will be installing the dipping platform to a new design, this time situated in what was the centre of the former pond, with a boardwalk leading to it from the bank. When we return at the end of the month we will be installing the new smaller lined pond at the end of the platform area, with a few smaller lined sections to create ephemeral ponds that will fill during the winter months.

Crane Park (Mill Road) - Meadow management
With Richmond Weekday Projects
At Crane Park (Mill Road Entrance)
Activity description
We will be working in one of the six meadows in Crane Park, working to control dominant and unwanted plant species (brambles and burdock). In this session, we will be working in the Mill Road meadow, accessed from the end of Mill Road or from Lincoln Ave. Some species can fast become dominant/invasive in open meadow spaces. They will often form dense stands in spring and summer, which shades out wildflower and grass species. Removal is often done in spring and early summer, before seed heads are able to form, to contain the growth/spread of the plant. Dependent on species, we will be utilising a mixture of mattocking, digging, and hand pulling removal techniques.
