Another New Forest stream, this time in the western corner of Broomy Inclosure, has been “restored” by the Forestry Commission.

  Before work started

In May 2015 remedial work was carried out on a previous “restoration” undertaken in 2012.

  The work in progress

Recent alterations to the streams at Ditchend (see post dated 26 July 2014) and now at Broomy raise worrying questions about the likely future appearance of Latchmore Brook if Planning Permission is granted for the proposed works to be carried out.
