25th October – Clearing Drainage Channel from Itchen Source Pond

The task was to clear the tunnel and channel of the emerging River Itchen from its source pond. It passes from the pond, under the B3046 to a farm field used for grazing. This section was choked with weeds and silt and required clearing. The field will also be the site of the new wildlife pond.

Work can be seen in this image:

The farthest team member can be seen by the opening of the tunnel as it exits under the B3046.

The site can be seen in this panning video:
