  • Advisory Visit River Manifold, Staffordshire 25Th March, 2019
    Advisory Visit River Manifold, Staffordshire 25th March, 2019 1.0 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit undertaken by Tim Jacklin of the Wild Trout Trust (WTT) to the River Manifold near Longnor, Staffordshire, on 25th March, 2018. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with members of Derbyshire County Angling Club (DCAC). This section of the River Manifold has been the subject of a previous WTT Advisory Visit (2007) and practical habitat improvement works by WTT and Trent Rivers Trust around 2008 – 2010. The habitat works were the subject of a scientific study of invertebrate populations (Everall et al., 2012). In 2011, a study was carried out by Loughborough University on behalf of Natural England, looking at the physical characteristics of rivers in the Upper Dove catchment, including the River Manifold (Rice & Toone, 2011). Normal convention is applied throughout the report with respect to bank identification, i.e. the banks are designated left hand bank (LHB) or right hand bank (RHB) whilst looking downstream. 2.0 Catchment / Fishery Overview The Manifold is a tributary of the River Dove, rising at Flash Head and joining the Dove at Ilam. The upper reaches flow over geology dominated by sandstones and undifferentiated silt/mudstones, predominantly of the Millstone Grit series and Bowland Formation; these rocks weather easily producing finer clastic sediments (cobbles, gravels, sand). Further downstream below Ecton, the geology is predominantly limestone, which is more resistant but soluble, producing classic karst features including subterranean drainage and dry valleys; this results in the river between Wetton Mill and Ilam being seasonally dry (Rice & Toone, 2011).

  • Magnetic Mapping of the Butterton Dyke: an Example of Detailed Geophysical Surveying
    Journal of the Geological Society, London, Vol. 144, 1987, pp. 29-33, 5 figs. Printed in Northern Ireland Magnetic mapping of the Butterton Dyke: an example of detailed geophysical surveying W.T. C. SOWERBUTTS Department of Geology, University of Manchester, Manchester M13 9PL, UK Abstract: A detailed vertical gradient magnetic survey of part of a small intrusion known as the Butterton Dyke has been made with the aid of a microcomputer-based data gathering system. The results of over 16500 magnetic measurements made by one person in less than a day have given results which reveal a detailed pattern of magnetic anomalies. From these it is possible to trace the course of two dykes for a distance of over 300 m, and identify places where they change direction and showsmall offsets. The advantage of making vertical gradient rather than total fieldmagnetic measurements include a faster surveying speed and better resolution of near-surface anomalies. This paper describes the execution and results of a detailed seconds. One reason for making a magnetic survey of part magnetic survey made over part of a Tertiary intrusion in of the Butterton Dyke was to see if useful information could Staffordshire, England.

  • Local Environment Agency Pi
    local environment agency pi DOVE ENVIRONMENTAL OVERVIEW AUGUST 1999 Ashbourne Dove LEAP Foreword I am delighted to introduce the Consultation Draft for the Dove Local Environment Agency Plan. This is the third LEAP to be produced in the Upper Trent Area of the Midlands Region and looks at environmental issues within the River Dove catchment. The Agency in consultation with key organisations has identified a number of environmental issues relevant to this area. We need to confirm that we have addressed all current issues and the options to resolve them, taking into account the often conflicting demands on the environment by its users. The LEAP process will provide a vision for the environmental needs of the River Dove area. It will provide a framework within which we can seek to develop new partnerships with organisations and bodies with whom we wish to share a common approach on environmental , issues. This report is published as part of our commitment to being open and consulting with others about our work. This will be part of a major consultation exercise and marks the start of a three month period of consultation. Following the consultation period the Agency will produce a five year action plan which will set out a costed programme of work by the Agency and other organisations. Annual reviews over the five year period will report on significant achievements and progress being made on the issues. Your views are extremely important. Only by letting us know your opinions will we be able to make a real difference to your local environment.
