Habitat creation benefits fisheries
Works near completion on Elstow Brook
Intense activity over the last six months has resulted in the creation of important habitats at the Grange Estate near Willington. Back channels will bring water into neighbouring woodland from Elstow Brook and from the Ouse at the Bulge, further to the north. The Environment Agency contributed £20,000 to the project which has created refuges in which fish can spawn and escape peak flows after heavy rain.
