Godmanchester Nature Reserve

The project will improve access and opportunities for visitors to a new Wildlife Trust nature reserve in Godmanchester, Cambridgeshire.

We have recently been enabled to purchase the land of Godmancester Nature Reserve so are now in a position to make sustainable improvements.

The project will make physical improvements at the site to make it fully accessible and welcoming for visitors. The improvements will include a bird hide and screening, new fencing, benches, cycle racks, a disability radar key gate and a new entrance (path and culvert). The site is popular with the local community as its 59-hectare mosaic of habitats – lakes, grassland, woodland, hedgerow – mean that people can get close to wildlife without unduly disturbing it. The new infrastructure will offer the best possible opportunities to access and enjoy a beautiful wildlife site and a key stepping stone in the Ouse Valley network of wetlands.
