North Marsh
Work was started on in early June 2008 to replace the old
damaged sluice at North Marsh. This is essential work and expected
to take a few weeks. Unfortunately this will inevitably cause some
disruption in the area around 'D' Res North hide until the task is complete.

Memorial Plaques are now in place at Tophill Low North Marsh hide and at the Hornsea Mere Hide. The North Marsh plaque is in memory of Keith & David Norris. The Norris family do a lot for Tophill and in fact donated materials for north marsh hide and the new steps. The Hornsea plaque is in memory of Kevin Anderson who helped the group with many conservation tasks, the last being the construction of a boardwalk for the Hornsea Mere hide.

More help is required so if you have any spare time let the field officer know.
