About this contract

The primary aim of this project is to restore 0.8ha of shingle on a series of four islands within our Medmerry nature reserve by mechanical clearance and redepositing the top 20cm of shingle to form fresh, bare substrate. This will be accompanied by the cutting of a buffer layer of vegetation to ground level next to the shingle, the cutting of patches in a further area beyond this, and installation of removable fence posts for a seasonal predator exclusion fence. Amphibious plant machinery will most likely be needed for access. Full details can be found on the attached documents. This project is being funded and delivered as part of the Solent Seascape Project, an ambitious 5 year project that aims to deliver significant seascape scale nature restoration within the Solent. Along with other elements nationally, they also form part of our Species Coastal and Wetlands Programme.
