This document may be reproduced with prior permission of the Environment Agency. December 2009 Introduction I am pleased to introduce our summary of the River Welland Catchment Flood Management Plan (CFMP). This CFMP gives an overview of the flood risk in the River Welland catchment and sets out our preferred plan for sustainable flood risk management over the next 50 to 100 years. The River Welland CFMP is one of 77 CFMPs for England of the tidal River Welland between Spalding and Fosdyke and Wales. Through the CFMPs, we have assessed inland Bridge. This could cause flooding to large parts of flood risk across all of England and Wales for the first Spalding. Breaching/failure of embankments that carry time. The CFMP considers all types of inland flooding, the main upland rivers across the fenland area of the from rivers, ground water, surface water and tidal catchment could cause significant flood risk. Surface flooding, but not flooding directly from the sea (coastal water and sewer flooding can affect parts of Market flooding). This is covered by Shoreline Management Harborough, Bourne and Stamford. Parts of the River Plans (SMPs).

  • Groundwater in Jurassic Carbonates
    Groundwater in Jurassic carbonates Field Excursion to the Lincolnshire Limestone: Karst development, source protection and landscape history 25 June 2015 Tim Atkinson (University College London) with contributions from Andrew Farrant (British Geological Survey) Introduction 1 The Lincolnshire Limestone is an important regional aquifer. Pumping stations at Bourne and other locations along the eastern edge of the Fens supply water to a large population in South Lincolnshire. Karst permeability development and rapid groundwater flow raise issues of groundwater source protection, one of themes of this excursion. A second theme concerns the influence of landscape development on the present hydrogeology. Glacial erosion during the Middle Pleistocene re-oriented river patterns and changed the aquifer’s boundary conditions. Some elements of the modern groundwater flow pattern may be controlled by karstic permeability inherited from pre-glacial conditions, whereas other flow directions are a response to the aquifer’s current boundary conditions. Extremely high permeability is an important feature in part of the confined zone of the present-day aquifer and the processes that may have produced this are a third theme of the excursion. The sites to be visited will demonstrate the rapid groundwater flow paths that have been proved by water tracing, whereas the topography and landscape history will be illustrated by views during a circular tour from the aquifer outcrop to the edge of the Fenland basin and back. Quarry exposures will be used to show the karstification of the limestone, both at outcrop and beneath a cover of mudrock. Geology and Topography The Middle Jurassic Lincolnshire Limestone attains 30 m thickness in the area between Colsterworth and Bourne and dips very gently eastwards.

  • Welland Water Transfer
    Welland Water Transfer A presentation to local councils and groups that may be affected by a proposal made by Ken Otter, the flood warden at Tallington. First presented December 16th 2020 Welland Water Transfer This presentation is in 3 parts. 1. The current position 2. The present situation 3. The latest proposal Thank you for attending. There will be an opportunity for questions after each part but if you need clarification please ask. Welland Water Transfer 1. The current position As we know, our local reservoir is Rutland Water. It is owned by Anglian Water and filled with water abstracted from local rivers under license (and at a cost) from the Environment Agency; the navigation authority for the Stamford to Folly River section of the Welland that we are concerned with. Welland Water Transfer To create the reservoir, the River Gwash was dammed up and it took about 3 years to fill. The River Gwash does help keep it topped up, but 95% of its water actually comes by pumping it in pipes from the River Welland and the River Nene. The map following is the area that affects us. Rutland Water to the Folly River The blue area covers the parish councils alongside the output from the reservoir. The southern edge is also the subject of the Langdyke Trust’s involvement with the John Clare Countryside project. The Folly River is in the bottom right corner. Welland Water Transfer What you see isn’t necessarily what you think! The River Welland here is a managed river. None of the flow is natural from Stamford.

  • The Welland Valley Partnership River Improvement Plan
    The Welland Valley Partnership Enhancing the River Welland Our invitation to support a new vision for the local environment January 2013 Foreword The Welland Valley Partnership - Working Together for a Better River The River Welland arises above Market Harborough and flows through the gently rolling countryside of Northamptonshire, Leicestershire and Rutland until it reaches Stamford where it is one of the features that makes the town so attractive. Below Stamford the River continues on its way to Market Deeping and Spalding, where its character changes and the water slows down to become one of the four fenland rivers which drain the Fens and finally enter the Wash. People have relied on the Rivers for thousands of years for water, food, transport and energy; as a result the River Welland and its valley have changed enormously. Even the course of the River Welland has moved; it used to flow through the Trinity Bridge in Crowland, but now runs almost a mile away and the bridge is a dry monument in the centre of the town. Figure 1: Trinity Bridge at Crowland. This triangular bridge once provided a crossing place over two channels of the River Welland. (©Dave Hitchborne and licensed for reuse under the Creative Commons Licence) 1: Trinity Bridge at While many of these changes have been beneficial, such as the creation of water meadows which were an important feature of the English countryside, others have had unintended side effects. For example, land drainage and the extensive dredging of the River upstream of Stamford have left us with an over-widened and over-deepened channel with little of its historic character.

  • Ketton Conservation Area
    Ketton Conservation Area Ketton Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan Draft for consultation August 2019 1 1.0 Background Ketton conservation area was designated in 1972, tightly drawn around the historic core of Church Road, Chapel Lane, Redmiles Lane, Aldgate and Station Road and extended in 1975 to its current size. 2.0 Location and Setting Ketton is a large village located 4 miles south west of Stamford on the Stamford Road (A6121). It has been identified within the Rutland Landscape Character Assessment (2003) as being within the ‘Middle Valley East’ of the ‘Welland Valley’ character area which is ‘a relatively busy, agricultural, modern landscape with many settlements and distinctive valley profiles.’ The river Chater is an important natural feature of the village and within the valley are a number of meadow areas between Aldgate and Bull Lane that contribute towards the rural character of the conservation area. The south western part of the conservation area is particularly attractive with a number of tree groups at Ketton Park, the private grounds of the Priory and The Cottage making a positive contribution. The attractive butter coloured stone typical of Ketton is an important feature of the village. The stone quarry and cement works which opened in 1928 is located to the north. A number of famous buildings have been built out of Ketton Stone, such as Burghley House and many of the Cambridge University Colleges. Although the Parish Church is of Barnack stone. The historic core is nestled in the valley bottom on the north side of the River Chater and extends in a linear form along the High Street, continuing onto Stamford Road (A6121).

  • 656 16 Fish Population Survey Report
    Fish population summary report River Welland, 2017 This report provides a brief summary of results from recent fish population surveys on the River Welland between Market Harborough and Spalding. The surveys were carried out to assess the health of the river and enable successful management of our principal fisheries. Seaton weir rock ramp fish pass (part of several habitat improvements on the upper river). Originating team Lincolnshire & Northamptonshire Analysis & Reporting Team Author(s) Jake Reeds Date January 2018 Summary • Ten electric fishing sites were surveyed during 2017 along the upper Welland (above Peakirk). The wide river downstream of this between Crowland Bridge and Spalding was surveyed using hydroacoustic technology during the night when fish are more active. • Sixteen species of fish were recorded and a total of 1110 fish were captured for measurement in the upper river electric fishing sites. • Chub and dace were the most widespread species, being recorded at seven and six sites respectively. • Roach were the most numerous species. Site locations: © Environment Agency copyright 2018. All rights reserved. Ordnance Survey licence number 100024198. Sites varied between 100 - 200m in length, each site was isolated using stop nets at the upstream and downstream limit. It was then electric fished twice with fish being placed in a recovery tank immediately after capture. All fish are then identified for species, measured to fork length and returned to the river. Survey results - summary Fish density for fish greater than 99mm in length (fish/100mˉ²) from the electric fishing sites undertaken is shown below. Fish lengths for all sizes are given to indicate the overall size range found at the site.
