The scheme has helped support the 700 metres of hedgelaying that took place over winter. This will support the local dormouse population.

  • Holnicote Multi-Objective Flood Management Demonstration Project
    Holnicote Multi-Objective Flood Management Demonstration Project An Analysis of the Impacts of Rural Land Management Change on Flooding and Flood Risk A Position Paper by Steve Rose and Zdenka Rosolova, JBA Consulting Rob Lamb, The JBA Trust Pete Worrall and Gene Hammond, Penny Anderson Associates Nigel Hester, National Trust Email: [email protected] Introduction Determining and predicting the influence and contribution that rural land management practices have on catchment scale flood risk management is a topic of national importance. The year 2000 was the wettest year in England and Wales for 270 years and the widespread flooding led to financial losses estimated at the time to be around £1 billion1. During the past decade flood events such as those at Boscastle (2004); Carlisle (2005); the summer floods of 2007 affecting a belt between Gloucestershire and Humberside costing Britain about £3.2 billion2 and Cockermouth (2009), have highlighted the significant social and economic costs associated with flooding incidents. These recent events have prompted greater interest in the role of surface water runoff from the rural environment and the inter- relationships between river channels and floodplains. The notion that through changing the way our rural land is managed would positively contribute to reducing flood risk is very attractive3 and a number of studies have been investigating this. However, it is still felt by key agencies, such as Defra and the Environment Agency, that insufficient quantitative evidence exists to provide the basis on which to shift resources and invest in land management change as a flood risk management measure (Parrott et al.
