ESPH SB Owlsbury Park SANGS Works (ESPH231)

Notice Description

Wealden District Council obtained a 70 acre site on the outskirts of Uckfield to form a Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace (SANGS) mitigating the effect of new development on nearby Ashdown forest.

Works will include the following: - Fencing including acoustic fencing - All weather footpaths and tracks - Tree and hedge planting - Ground modelling including formation of extensive earth bunds, creation of a pond, swales, ditches, etc - Wildflower meadows and swathes - Installation of signage, benches, wayfinders, educational boards, etc all as specified - Creation of amphitheatre feature During this period the contractor will also be responsible for all aspects of grounds maintenance to phases 1 and 2 of the site including formative pruning of the orchards.
