Wetland Lake, just opened
Wetland Lake is the landscape water feature of the new development in Compton Park. Until yesterday it was surrounded by buildersfencing which meant it was only visible from a distance.
The lake is fed by a previously culverted section of the Graiseley brook. The lake has already established vegetation and a wooden footbridge, from which this picture was taken.
It’s already beginning to attract wildlife: a first quick stroll across the bridge gave a view of dragonflies as well as other water insects.
