Notice Title

Investigating ecohydrology and exploring opportunities for habitat restoration via re-wetting

Notice Description

It is proposed to investigate the hydrological characteristics of the west Surrey Hills AONB, improve understanding of peat in the landscape, and to identify priority areas for heathland and peatland restoration.
