East End Pond Restoration – Langtoft Parish Council

The project will restore East End pond area back to its historic open landscaped area, retain and improve the seasonal water levels, and improve biodiversity. Removing/pollarding 70% of the trees focusing on those in the basin allowing light to penetrate the pond area. Ivy will be encouraged to grow on the pollard trees providing a much-needed nectar source during winter. Removal of dead vegetation from the pond basin, improving the oxygen levels in the water. Removing scrub and brambles from the perimeter and sides of the pond, restoring/recreating wildflower grasslands by the spreading of green hay. Installation of structures that provide environments suitable for birds, mammals and amphibians.
