Over the next few weeks, there will be quite a lot of survey work going on across Cowpen Marsh.
This is being undertaken by Natural England and the Environment Agency. The timing of this work has been to coincide with the post-breeding season / pre-wintering season and when the marsh is at its driest.
This work is all in connection with flood prevention works that may be taking place next year.
