In order to inform the study a survey was carried out which involved walking the banks of both rivers, recording key geomorphological features, the extent of physical modification that each river has been subject to and providing recommendations for enhancement measures to restore each river to a more natural state and allow the expression of the characteristic habitat form and function for the benefit of the flora and fauna characteristic of the river type. The main driver for this work is the onus on the Environment Agency to seek improvement to rivers and watercourses under the Water Framework Directive (WFD), in addition to other statutory drivers. The walkover study identified that the Middle and Lower Stour has been subject to significant historical artificial modifications, including dredging and channel realignment for flood defence and other purposes. In addition, there are a number of weir structures causing impoundment to flows. This has resulted in large sections of the channel being relatively uniform (wide and often deep), with the channel form lacking a diverse morphology. By contrast, The Moors River System is essentially a natural system exhibiting an exceptionally diverse range of aquatic and wetland vegetation. On a local scale the river has, in the past, been modified to provide water for mills, trout lakes and for watercress cultivation. In the southern reaches of the river, below Verwood, discrete lengths have been dredged and realigned for agriculture, flood alleviation and urban drainage. In addition, until recently, weed cutting in the channel took place to increase drainage capacity. Following the completion of the survey an ecological vision was drawn up for each river. The ecological vision aims to present a definition of what good ecological status on both rivers should look like, the objective being for each river to exhibit the biological, chemical and structural characteristics that would be expected under nearly undisturbed conditions (i.e. in a natural, unmodified state what should both rivers look like, and what habitats, species and geomorphology would be expected). It is beyond the remit of this report to comment in detail on the potential effects of climate change. However, it is worth noting that the restoration measures proposed have the potential to increase the resilience of the River Stour and Moors River to the effects of climate change, as well as providing a number of additional benefits. Restoration suggestions for the Stour have focused on the removal of structures such as weirs, where possible, and physical intervention to restore diversity to the channel and improve connectivity with the surrounding floodplain. For the Moors River, restoration measures have focused more on management of adjacent habitats rather than extensive physical restoration of the channel itself. Although both rivers would benefit from the implementation of restoration measures, it was apparent that both currently support a diverse range of wildlife. The measures proposed aim to build on the wealth of biodiversity that already exists. This report presents the survey methodology and the broad ecological vision for the Middle and Lower Stour and the Moors River. The report has been divided into three sections: . Part A Introduction and generic information applicable to both rivers . Part B Introduction to and ecological vision for the Middle and Lower Stour . Part C Introduction to and ecological vision for the Moors River System The Lower Stour and Moors River —Broad Ecological Vision and Restoration Measures Hyder Consulting (UK) Limited-2212959 Page 2 Following on from this report, detailed reach by reach restoration plans have been produced for each river. These plans are the subject of a separate report. The Lower Stour and Moors River —Broad Ecological Vision and Restoration Measures Hyder Consulting (UK) Limited-2212959 Page 3 Part A 1 Introduction 1.1 Survey area This report presents the results of a geomorphological and ecological survey of the Middle and Lower Stour and the Moors River System in Dorset. This report presents a broad overview of the main physical habitat modifications that each river has been subject to, the impact of these on the ecology of the rivers and a broad overview of actions that could be undertaken to improve the habitat condition of each river. Following the production of this report, a series of reach by reach restoration measures will be identified, together with a high level consideration of the potential flood risk implications. This will be set out in a separate report. The section of the River Stour that this report is concerned with is from the confluence of the River Lydden, upstream of Sturminster

Dorset Heaths Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas North (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

  • River Crane and Moors River Moors Valley Country Park
    River Crane and Moors River Moors Valley Country Park Advisory Visit April 2018 Key Findings • The Crane and Moors River supports a diverse range of high quality habitats. • The upper reaches of the Crane provide some good quality spawning opportunities for gravel spawning fish species • Tree work to preserve “leggy” bank-top alders is required • Further successional tree planting is recommended • Long sections of river are adversely impacted by flows being diverted away and through the parallel lake systems • The lakes can no longer fulfil their designed flood attenuation levels due to heavy siltation issues • De-silting the lakes alone is not a sustainable solution 1 1.0 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit to the River Crane and Moors River (the river changes its name half way along the reach) flowing through the Moors Valley Country Park (MVCP) near Three Legged Cross in East Dorset. The request for the visit came from the MVCP Team Leader, who is looking into options for managing the flood attenuation ponds that currently take flow from the river, as well as exploring opportunities for improving river and riparian habitat quality. Comments in this report are based on observations made during the site visit and discussions on the day with MVCP staff. Normal convention is applied with respect to bank identification, i.e. left bank (LB) or right bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. Upstream and downstream references are often abbreviated to u/s and d/s, respectively, for convenience. The Ordnance Survey National Grid Reference system is used for identifying specific locations.

The Open Day at the Memorial Hall attracted over 800 villagers WEST MOORS PARISH PLAN Looking to the future with over 50 ways to improve the village. Produced by the West Moors Parish Plan Steering Committee 2007 1. INTRODUCTION Background to Parish Plans The Government’s Rural White Paper “Our Countryside, the Future” (2000) proposed that all rural communities should develop “Town, Village and Parish Plans” to identify key facilities and services and to set out the problems that needed to be tackled with a view to demonstrating how distinctive character and features could be preserved. This was followed by the Countryside Agency launching its “Vital Villages” programme in 2001. The goal of the programme was to achieve socially and economically active rural communities that address their own priorities making them better equipped to shape their own futures. Parish Plans form part of this programme and funding for this initiative came from Dorset Community Action A Parish Plan should address the needs of the entire community and an important aspect of this is that everyone should be given the opportunity to take part in its preparation.

  • Wiltshire Yews an Inventory of Churchyard Yews Along the Avon Valley
    Wiltshire Yews An Inventory of Churchyard Yews Along the Avon Valley By Peter Norton Part 2 of 2 – following the Avon from Salisbury to the sea 1 Britford – St Peter Map 184 SU 163 284 2 miles SE of Salisbury Earliest records indicate a Saxon church in 800 which remained largely unaltered until 1330. Restoration took place in 1873. Three yews grow on this site. A male (below left) with a girth of ’”at ’and ’grows near to the south west porch. South east of the church is a female measuring ’”at ’and next to this a male (below right) measuring ’at the ground. 2 Alderbury – St Mary the Virgin Map 184 SU 182 269 4 miles SE of Salisbury Evidence of Saxon earthworks has been found, which could indicate an earlier settlement and church close to the current site. The earliest record of this site is found in the Domesday Book. The present church was built in 1857 on the foundations of the old. Seven yews grow within the churchyard with the most notable, female, growing south west of the church porch. This ‘’yew consists of a substantial fragment ’ in girth) of the original tree and an internal stem which no longer grows inside the tree. Its branches are propped up on staves, while the tree itself is supported by a large iron band staked to the ground by a substantial iron pole. In 1999 Tim Hills wrote in the article on Propped Trees in Churchyards “ Wiltshire village of Alderbury came close to losing its ancient yew fragment in the 1990s when St ’ Parochial Church Council applied for consent to fell it.

  • 7. Analysis and Discussion
    7. Analysis and Discussion 7.1. Introduction This study has focussed on how historical imagery (landscape paintings, drawings, prints, postcards and old photographs) can be used as evidential proof of the historic character of the Stour catchment in Dorset, both in terms of heritage features such as buildings but also the landscape as heritage in its own right. The use of imagery provides a novel way of illustrating, often in full colour, river landscapes through time, and allows the evaluation of heritage benefits in an immediately accessible format for a wide range of river stakeholders. This study has sought to demonstrate the value of artworks and other historical imagery as a competent and supportive tool for heritage evaluation and management in such water environments. This study supports the work of Fjordr Limited, which is preparing a wider study of ‘Historic watercourses – developing a method for identifying the historic character of watercourses, the River Stour, Dorset’ (HB7244). The project concept for this particular study developed from a previous study supported by Historic England ‘CHeRISH’ (Coastal Heritage Risk – Imagery in Support of Heritage Planning and Management in South-West England) (7145), which can be viewed at http://cherish.maritimearchaeologytrust.org/. The development of the CHeRISH project, which examined coastal heritage risk in south-west England, and this new study of the River Stour relies upon the identification and assessment of a sufficient number of images being available in order to evaluate the contribution that historical imagery can provide. Fortunately, a large number of suitable images have been identified with the assistance of museums and art galleries in Dorset, together with the London auction houses and image libraries.
