Description

Tree Planting at Pott Shrigley, SK10 5RX – meeting point tbc

Working on the upper site on Bakestonedale Moor (1 mile uphill walk on rough grassland to get there; splendid views when you do)

This tree planting will support the work that was undertaken last year to build leaky dams and create natural flood management opportunities.  This was done to hold back water in small brooks and streams high up above Pott Shrigley, near the source of the Bollin, and in periods of heavy rain, have worked to prevent flooding in homes and businesses.  By planting trees in this location, it is hoped that as they reach maturity, the trees will also absorb and holding back more water.

No previous experience is neccessary, all equipment and PPE is provided.  Please wear suitable outdoor clothing and bring lunch and plenty to eat and drink.
