  • Putney Bridge Foreshore
    Site information paper information Site Putney Bridge Foreshore Introduction Currently, untreated sewage regularly overflows into the River Thames from London’s Victorian sewerage system via combined sewer overflows (CSOs). The proposed Thames Tunnel would intercept these overflows through the use of a new storage and transfer tunnel, which would link west London and Abbey Mills Pumping Station. The sewage flow would then be transferred to Beckton Sewage Treatment Works via the Lee Tunnel. The reduction in untreated sewage entering the River Thames would bring long-term benefits for the environment and users of the River Thames. In order to deliver the project we need a number of sites along the route and this document identifies our current preferred site at Putney Bridge Foreshore. Key facts Local authority: Wandsworth CSO name: Putney Bridge CSO spill volume in an average year: 68,000m³ (equivalent to approximately 27 Olympic swimming pools) Site type: CSO site Duration of main construction works: Approximately three and a half years. Thames Tunnel 1 Putney Bridge Foreshore Section 1: Introduction and site information We are proposing to use the foreshore of the River This site information paper sets out our proposals at Thames, to the west of Putney Bridge, for this Putney Bridge Foreshore. We have also produced project construction work and to accommodate permanent information papers, which cover overarching topics structures required to operate the main tunnel. The site relating to the project. Where we consider that a project would be used to connect the existing local CSO, known information paper is particularly relevant, we have as the Putney Bridge CSO, to the main tunnel.

  • The River Thames
    THE THAMES THROUGH TIME The Archaeology of the Gravel Terraces of the Upper and Middle Thames: The Thames Valley in the Medieval and Post-Medieval Periods AD 1000–2000 The River Thames THE THAMES THROUGH TIME The Archaeology of the Gravel Terraces of the Upper and Middle Thames: The Thames Valley in the Medieval and Post-Medieval Periods AD 1000-2000 The River Thames By James Bond, Anne Dodd, Jill Hind and Trevor Rowley INTRODUCTION By AD 1000, the Thames was largely established along its modern course (Fig. 1). The character of the river and its immediate environs has been studied as part of numerous archaeological investigations in the valley (Booth et al . 2007; Lambrick et al . 2009; Morigi et al . 2011). By the time of Domesday Book, extensive areas along the river banks were cultivated as hay meadow, and detailed local archaeological studies suggest that this could have begun as early as the 8th or 9th century (eg Booth et al . 2007, 331–6). In places, earlier channels silted up as the alluvium left behind by seasonal floods heightened, extending old river islands and creating new ones. There is abundant evidence for human intervention in these processes from the late Saxon period onwards, with the dumping of soil and refuse at the water-edge to raise the ground level, infill unwanted channels and extend habitable land. The cutting and stabilisation of these channels provided water for milling, industrial processes and navigation. Between AD 1000 and 2000, the Thames provided a wide range of resources to local inhabitants. It was an indispensable source of water for brewing, washing, irrigation and industry; it was the chief drain and sewer of the region, carrying away human and industrial waste; it provided power for mills; it was a source of fish and wildfowl, and of reeds, rushes and willow for flooring and wickerwork; and, it was a highway for transport between the west, the midlands and the port and capital city of London.

  • Richmond Biodiversity Action Plan
    1 The Local Biodiversity Action Plan for Richmond Executive Summary This document is the culmination of many years’ work by many organisations and charities, including the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, London Natural History Society, London Wildlife Trust, Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, The Royal Parks, Thames Landscape Strategy and Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust, professional bodies, communities and local residents within the borough. The Local Biodiversity Action Plan (LBAP) in Richmond sets out the strategic context of biodiversity, which was first raised at the Rio Summit in 1992. This led to the development of a UK Biodiversity Action Plan, which has raised public awareness of biodiversity and provided guidance on the preparation of Local Biodiversity Action Plans. This Local Biodiversity Action Plan for the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames sets out the framework for the protection, conservation and enhancement of wildlife within Richmond upon Thames. LBAPs are seen as an innovative approach to wildlife conservation as they are moving away from the traditional ‘naturalist’ approach, which to many appears elitist and unwelcoming, and are striving to broaden the constituency of those interested and involved. It is a widely held belief that making a Biodiversity Action Plan relevant to local people through active involvement and consultation will ensure pro-active action ‘on the ground’. The list of habitats and species in this plan is not exhaustive, although the Richmond Biodiversity Action Plan aims to concentrate on and prioritise those habitats and species, which are rare, in decline, or characteristic of Richmond, which will help raise the profile of biodiversity. The priority habitats within this borough, which are also of regional and national importance, are: Acid Grassland, Ancient Parkland/Veteran Trees, Broadleaved Woodland, Reedbeds and Tidal Thames.
