Notice Title

Inversnaid - Deer Fencing

Notice Description

The area covered in this tender forms part of RSPB Inversnaid. It is also within an area of designated woodland (Pollochro Woods SSSI) that is in poor condition due to over browsing by deer and goats. Permission is in place from NatureScot to carry out the work. It has been confirmed that no planning consent is required. The successful contractor will construct two deer exclosures on the western side of the reserve.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Each exclosure will require just over 1km of deer fencing. The deer fence must be higher than 1.8m but cannot be over 2m. The fence line is expected to follow the general route as indicated in the maps below, but small deviations to allow for ground conditions and siting will be acceptable subject to agreement. At least one access gate per exclosure should be included in the tender. A cost should be given for the option of marking the fence for black grouse. Final route and gate location will be decided by a site visit alongside the RSPB site warden prior to work commencing. Inversnaid is a challenging site to work at and the location is remote, especially so in the case of the north exclosure. The location is difficult, and the ground is uneven and steep in places. It is expected the contractor will have experience of working in upland sites. A site visit is strongly recommended before tendering.
