New Pool Fencing on the Clent Hills


The area prior to fencing.

As part of a scheme to give aquatic and marginal vegetation a chance to grow over the next few years, a block of temporary fencing has been erected at New Pool.

We're aware that the pool is popular with both dogs and horses, but it also has some biological interest. During the installation of the fence, we undertook some sampling for aquatic animals; so we can monitor how vegetation recovery benefits the overall diversity of the habitat.
