Will Cheriton Stream have suffered the drought like The Dever? Tichborne River Restoration Project —turning back time. Adam will guide us along the gin clear, newly meandering chalk stream. Pointing out, and explaining, how the partnership project has helped to restore priority habitat for some of our most threatened species. Along the way, explaining the story of how the project came about, the aims, lessons learnt and how the successes of the project are being monitored. Thanks to the Tichborne Estate for kindly allowing Adam to show the group through their meadows at the start of this 4 mile walk
