The Ice Age Ponds Project is planning a couple of events in April which are aimed at Farmers, Landowners and communities who may have existing or filled in (‘Ghost’) Ice age Ponds on land under their control.
We may already have been in touch or even surveyed a pond on your land and we would like to be able to stay in touch about our future plans and most of all seek your views on how we can improve the County’s Ice Age Pond Heritage.
There will be a talk at 2.00pm about Ice Age Ponds, and some of the work the Ice Age Ponds Project been doing as well as what we have found out.
We will then open the rest of the meeting for an informal questions and answer session and a chance to gather your views on how future projects and funding could help to conserve these amazing features of our landscape.
What we’d like to find out is:
• Do you have an Ice Age Pond on your land and would you like to see it restored?
• What would encourage you to restore your pond/s eg funding? Advice? Management Plans?
We will have members of the Ice Age Ponds team around to answer questions and we’ll also maps of the location of likely Ice Age Ponds.
There will be tea, coffee, cake and biscuits available from 1.30pm and following the talk.
