The Lincolnshire Wolds has a
variety of fresh water within its rolling hillsides and valleys,
from the springs that feed our streams and rivers to the natural and
man-made ponds, marshes and ditches.
Water plays an important role in
the area, contributing valuable wildlife habitats, the sites of
archaeological and historical settlements and ultimately, the water
we all use today.
The Lincolnshire Wolds Chalk
Streams Project brings together a partnership of organisations that
are actively working together to conserve and enhance this
nationally important resource. The Environment Agency, Lincolnshire
Wolds Countryside Service, Natural England, Lincolnshire Wildlife
Trust, Anglian Water and the Wild Trout Trust are taking action to
ensure that the nature conservation, landscape, community and
economic interests are taken into account when working on chalk
streams.
The following information is
useful for land managers and interested parties.
