East Winch Common 9.6.25

A walk with NWT reserves manager Ash Murray to find out how the current wrk to improve the water table is restoring this Common and its Fauna and Flora.
In areas where the water is now being retained several rare (to Norfolk) Plants, Lichens and Liverworts have appeared. Bog Pimpernel around the edges of water; Petty Whin found as a very small seedlings until two grown shrubs were spotted nearby. A most interesting morning seeing how improving the Common and peat carbon storage can be improved.
Ash was thanked for his time to show us the transition from Heathland to wet Fen.
