Colebrook channel plumbed into culvert. Higher Reed bed being formed. Part 3. 20th August 2022

This part covers what will be the Reed Beds and Manor lake.

All I can work out here is that Inert are constructing something that is almost but not entirely like what is detailed in the latest plans I have.  I can't be sure, because the whole area is a huge mess.

What I think is going on is that in some areas Inert are bringing some material to to build structures with them e.g. embankments, clay capping, etc. In other places, much as I predicted, Inert are engaged in digging stuff out after over filling the area e.g. Manor lake.  Granted, a large proportion of this area will be shallow reed beds, but still, I did say.  The deeper part of Manor lake will definitely need digging out.

I do feel that events will proceed quickly around the reed beds and Manor lake as there isn't a great deal of constructing that needs doing. Well not on the scale of the infill. However, demolishing the land bridges might take time and till require a lot of planning so as not to cause heavy plant problems with the rains finally arrive.
