Restoring rivers the Natural Course way
Thursday, October 24, 2019
Eagley Brooks was identified by Natural Course as being a high priority waterbody for the Irwell Catchment Partnership to focus on. This waterbody has a number of physical modifications, such as weirs, which impact the quality and ecological status of the river.
Many of the weirs were built during the Industrial Revolution, and so form part of the local heritage of the area, however due to age, some are starting to fail.
