Enjoy the new viewpoint at Fleet Pond from The Bog Myrtle Glade Boardwalk



You may have seen us working next to the Bog Myrtle Glade boardwalk (near the Westover rd entrance) on Fleet Pond over the past couple of days we have cleared the scrub which was encroaching on the marsh and shading out the Bog Myrtle. By clearing the willow and birch scrub we have opened up the view across the marsh and you can even see the pond. This has also created a corridor between Wood Lane heath and Fugelmere marsh allowing passage of insects and birds. Connectivity between habitats is important, allowing the spread of species.
