Restoration Projects

Learn more about where we are taking action to improve the river for wildlife and the community. We have already completed several restoration works along the River Sherbourne, such as our fantastic work to mitigate a weir in Lake View Park, and the redirection of the North Brook in Coundon Wedge.

Each post includes precise information on the work happening, featuring images and maps as well as access information for the site. These pages will be regularly updated as the projects are undertaken so please do revisit regularly.

Projects...

In March 2025, we will be carrying out restoration works in Charterhouse Heritage Park with approved contractors. The project aims to re-naturalise the River Sherbourne which flows through Coventry, improving it for nature and for local communities. There will be several elements to this particular restoration project, all of which will have a positive effect on the river and surrounding area in both short-term and long-term scenarios.

In November 2024, we will be carrying out restoration works in Lake View Park with approved contractors Ecolibrium Environmental Contracting Ltd. The project will have multiple elements, including on-river and off-river restoration, which will improve features for people and nature.

On 31st July 2023, we began carrying out weir mitigation works in Lake View Park with approved contractors.
