Wetland restoration - Verderers of The New Forest
One of the key objectives of the New Forest HLS Scheme is wetland restoration, to change the remaining sites of special scientific interest that are in ‘unfavourable’ condition to ‘favourable’ condition. This will safeguard an area that is recognised as being of outstanding importance for nature conservation in both the UK and Europe due to the size, quality and complex mosaic of habitats.

The team’s expertise in working with natural processes and applying these to river restoration has been demonstrated through numerous projects in the New Forest. The Forestry Commission’s team of experts is working hard to re-instate natural bends in streams to increase their length and slow the flow of water. By infilling these deep man-made drains we also reduce the erosion of boggy mires, which is key habitat for species such as curlew and small red damselfly. So far, nine miles of drainage channels have been restored to natural streams, protecting the New Forest’s internationally-important wetlands and helping them to function better for future generations.
