15:04, 24 November 2014 | Multiple bough deflector.jpg (file) | 74 KB | The deflectors were set at different heights in the water so that they would operate under a range of flow conditions. | 1 | |
15:01, 24 November 2014 | Step4.jpg (file) | 115 KB | The final step is to cover the debris with soil and then repair the bank to its former condition. | 1 | |
14:58, 24 November 2014 | Step3.jpg (file) | 123 KB | Step three in the deflector installation is to stake and brace the large woody-debris. By linking all the elements together and using screws to fasten the material, the likelihood of structure failure is minimised. | 1 | |
14:55, 24 November 2014 | Step2.jpg (file) | 121 KB | The second step in the deflector installation is to lower the large woody-debris into the trench. | 1 | |
14:54, 24 November 2014 | Step1.jpg (file) | 117 KB | The first step in the deflector installation was to dig out a trench in the bank. | 1 | |

14:36, 24 November 2014 | Long reach berm.JPG (file) | 4.59 MB | A long-reach excavator was the perfect tool for the job of working around a fence line. The weight of the machine did cause some minor tracking issues but ensured the required stability when working so close to the river bank. | 1 | |
14:32, 24 November 2014 | Vole mitigation.JPG (file) | 5.85 MB | Prior to works the river banks were checked for water vole burrows. | 1 | |
14:29, 24 November 2014 | Drilling.jpg (file) | 78 KB | Timber screws were used to connect the woody-debris to the vertical stakes. The screws are discrete but ensure the structure is solid. | 1 | |
14:26, 24 November 2014 | Drill.JPG (file) | 2.9 MB | High-powered drills were necessary for us to screw some of the wooden features in place. | 1 | |

12:25, 24 November 2014 | Berm scrape.JPG (file) | 5.47 MB | Berm feature incorporating a 'scrape' feature intended to be a refuge for fish fry or to enable the growth of water-loving macrophytes. | 1 | |
12:22, 24 November 2014 | Elongated berm.JPG (file) | 4.73 MB | Looking downstream at an elongated berm feature on the River Brett near Layham. The reworked river bank can be seen on the right-hand side. | 1 | |
12:01, 24 November 2014 | Gravel shoulders.JPG (file) | 3.97 MB | Gravel shoulders created using material excavated from a newly created pool. Note how the flow is visibly quicker where the channel is constricted by the gravel features. | 1 | |
11:35, 24 November 2014 | Deflector comp.jpg (file) | 441 KB | Flow deflector combined with pool excavation to increased habitat diversity. Willow spillings and branches have been included to provide shelter for juvenile fish and invertebrates. | 1 | |
11:32, 24 November 2014 | Soft berm.JPG (file) | 5.68 MB | A berm made of soft bed material and reed vegetation. This feature has narrowed the active channel and increased flow velocity locally. | 1 | |

11:27, 24 November 2014 | Composite berm 2.JPG (file) | 2.68 MB | A second composite berm. In this instance the stakes that are inserted vertically into the river bed can be see. | 1 | |
11:25, 24 November 2014 | Composite berm.JPG (file) | 2.78 MB | Composite berm consisting of a downstream flow deflector back-filled with spoil material taken from the originally over-steep embankment. The wooden toe adds stability and protection to the feature. | 1 | |
