Name: Habitat Creation - Hogsmill River
Start: 2024-11-20T10:00:00+00:00
End: 2024-11-20T15:00:00+00:00
Location: Elmbridge Meadow

Join us at the newly restored section of the Hogsmill river in Elmbridge Meadows to erect a dead hedge.
Works are currently underway to re-naturalise a 1km stretch of the river between the A3 and Rose Walk Nature Reserve.
Once work is complete, the hedge will provide an important barrier, to protect the restored sections of river and allow the new habitat to establish and thrive.
Dogs love using the river to swim and play, and this has been an important consideration throughout the design of the Enriching Elmbridge Meadows project. We are creating two ‘doggy dips’ which are sloping, reinforced sections of bank where dogs can enter the water. By directing dogs towards these areas, and restricting access to others, we can protect the important habitat works and also provide safe entry and exit for dogs to continue using the water.
Meeting point: In the greenspace near to the Rose Walk Nature Reserve, just off the roundabout at Elmbridge Avenue, and Raeburn Avenue. Nearest postcode: KT5 8EN. Google map HERE
