Wildlife habitats in Stoke Park will see a boost this year as a major restoration project is launched. Work to restore three overgrown ponds is expected to benefit frogs, beetles, dragonflies and aquatic snails.
The three ponds will soon become “thriving oases for wildlife” according to Bristol City Council chiefs. The project is partly funded by Natural England and some of the work will be carried out by local volunteers.
Also funding the project is the Bristol and Avon Catchment Partnership, to help with training, tools and materials.
