  • Podolak Multifunctional Riverscapes
    Multifunctional Riverscapes: Stream restoration, Capability Brown’s water features, and artificial whitewater By Kristen Nicole Podolak A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor G. Mathias Kondolf, Chair Professor Louise Mozingo Professor Vincent H. Resh Spring 2012 i Abstract Multifunctional Riverscapes by Kristen Nicole Podolak Doctor of Philosophy in Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor G. Mathias Kondolf, Chair Society is investing in river restoration and urban river revitalization as a solution for sustainable development. Many of these river projects adopt a multifunctional planning and design approach that strives to meld ecological, aesthetic, and recreational functions. However our understanding of how to accomplish multifunctionality and how the different functions work together is incomplete. Numerous ecologically justified river restoration projects may actually be driven by aesthetic and recreational preferences that are largely unexamined. At the same time river projects originally designed for aesthetics or recreation are now attempting to integrate habitat and environmental considerations to make the rivers more sustainable. Through in-depth study of a variety of constructed river landscapes - including dense historical river bend designs, artificial whitewater, and urban stream restoration this dissertation analyzes how aesthetic, ecological, and recreational functions intersect and potentially conflict. To explore how aesthetic and biophysical processes work together in riverscapes, I explored the relationship between one ideal of beauty, an s-curve illustrated by William Hogarth in the 18th century and two sets of river designs: 18th century river designs in England and late 20th century river restoration designs in North America.

  • River Lyde – Manor Farm
    River Lyde – Manor Farm An advisory visit carried out by the Wild Trout Trust – July 2009 1. Introduction This report is the output of a Wild Trout Trust advisory visit undertaken on the River Lyde at Manor Farm. The advisory visit was undertaken at the request of Mr. John Lewin on behalf of his father, Mr. Colin Lewin who is the owner of Manor Farm. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions primarily with John and Colin Lewin. Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. 2. Catchment overview Rising from chalk aquifer near Mapledurwell and old Basing in North Hampshire, the River Lyde is a delightful chalkstream tributary of the River Loddon. The Lyde is approximately 8km in length and joins the Loddon about 1km upstream of Sherfield on Loddon. The Manor Farm beat is approximately 1km in length and lies roughly in the central section of the river. The Lyde is a true chalkstream and along with the Loddon and Whitewater form a network of north Hampshire chalk rivers. Although these streams are not as famous by reputation as some of the larger Hampshire chalkstream fisheries, they are, none the less, extremely valuable and productive. The Lyde has been assessed as having excellent quality water and is rated as class A under the Environment Agency’s General Quality Assessment. Abstraction pressures are mainly confined to a non consumptive abstraction supplying water for the Andwell Mill Trout Farm.

  • March 2007 Newsletter In
    Earley Newsletter March 2007 Environmental Issue 7 Group www.earleyenvironmentalgroup.co.uk Earley - Old English ‘Earnley’ = eagle wood ur newsletter this quarter has something of a watery theme. We are fortunate to have O several important water habitats in Earley. Several are man-made - Maiden Erlegh Lake, Whiteknights Lake and Marefield Pond; others are natural - small streams, the Loddon on our eastern boundary and the mighty Thames on our northern boundary. Some of these water features hardly rate a second glance from many residents, but are home to a diverse range of wildlife. In the past local people would have looked upon them as valuable resources for provision of water, food and income. Much of their value now is in the visual pleasure they give us, as well as supporting wildlife and providing the means for hobbies like water sports and fishing. Find out more about one of these water habitats, the Loddon, and read about the jewel in the crown, the Loddon Lily on page 2. Make a date in your diary for our talk on those helicopters of the waterways, Dragonflies, on Thursday, 19 April. And don’t forget to join in our Rescue litter project on Sunday 11 March.

  • Rivers Loddon and Blackwater Swallowfield Fishing Club
    Rivers Loddon and Blackwater Swallowfield Fishing Club April 2016 1 1. Introduction This report is the output of a site visit to the confluence of the Rivers Loddon and the Blackwater at Swallowfield in Berkshire. The rivers here are fished and managed by the Swallowfield Fishing Club (SFC). Further information about the SFC can be found at: www.swallowfieldfishingclub.co.uk The request for the visit came from Mr. Russ Hatchett from the SFC and Mr. Martin Moore, Chairman of the Loddon Fisheries and Conservation Consultative (LFCC). The request for advice was prompted by concerns relating to the lack of suitable spawning sites and the loss of instream cover, particularly habitat that was provided by large woody material and any implications this might have for the quality of the local fishery. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Mr. Hatchett, Mr. Moore and Mr. Dave Randall, club committee member. Normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification, i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. Map 1. Loddon and Blackwater at Swallowfield Park © streemap 2 The lower Loddon is designated under the Water Framework Directive as Water body ID no. GB106039023160 and the Blackwater as GB106039017290. The site inspection was carried out on the bottom 0.6km of the Blackwater in Swallowfield Park (National Grid Reference SU 729 650) to the Loddon confluence (SU 725 656) and then downstream for a further 1km on the main river, to a point on the edge of the Park at SU 734 660.

  • A SHORT STROLL ALONG the LODDON - Lower Earley Woods and Meadows and We Do Mean Short, About 35 Mins!
    Want to go for a walk but don't know where to go? A SHORT STROLL ALONG THE LODDON - Lower Earley Woods and Meadows and we do mean short, about 35 mins! For a family stroll to counteract that big meal, or an energy-sapping power walk for the kids, take the northward path where Rushey Way meets Lower Earley Way at the Sindlesham roundabout. For a few yards this is parallel with Lower Earley Way and then skirts the west bank of the River Loddon, gradually moving away from the din of the traffic. Following this path, you eventually come to a flight of steps, (which would take you out onto the Wokingham Road). Turn left at the steps and follow the path in a circular direction to arrive back where you started. Pause when you get to the notice board there. It’s worth studying, being very attractively illustrated, with lyrical details on the past history of the area you’ve just circulated. For instance, did you know you are treading in the footsteps of very early man, or that people used to set up eel traps on the Loddon until the recent past? You may, as you walk along the west bank of the Loddon lilies river, see clumps of Loddon lilies growing on the east bank, which perhaps survive because they are inaccessible. These were not identified as native flowers by early botanists, but “Flora Britannica” seems to suggest that, whilst some of these lilies may be garden escapes, where you get large swathes of them in inhospitable, damp, swamp-like conditions they may indeed be native plants growing in places where early botanists didn’t venture.
