The National Trust is marking 125 years of caring for one of the oldest nature reserves in the UK – and the very first it acquired - with the announcement of a £1.8 million project to restore 215 hectares (531 acres) of precious peat at Wicken Fen, making it the conservation charities largest lowland peat restoration project.
The National Trust has acquired a further 70 acres (28 hectares) of land adjoining Wicken Fen in Cambridgeshire, in efforts to protect more of the precious fenland habitat and to help more rare animals and birds including turtle doves.
This month, rangers at Wicken Fen National Nature Reserve (NNR) will turn on taps across the site to allow water to flow from the lodes on higher ground to the lower laying fens, creating standing pools of water and a winter wetland for wildlife, as well as sequestering carbon.
