Over the years we have lost the biodiversity of the Wetland due to it becoming increasingly dry. The Leap stream that used to flood into it, no longer does. So SGC have arranged for a contractor to dig four channels across the area to allow water to egress across the site. This will hopefully encourage the flora we used to see, into it once more hopefully also having an effect on the creatures and birds that used to call it home. The Bund which has been in place at the northern end of the Wetland to help retain water is to be investigated to see if it can be repaired, to once again be a functioning component of the Wetland.
