Burton Park
We have completed a lake refurbishment project this summer at Burton Park in West Sussex. Approximately 7500m3 of silt and vegetation were removed and placed in a storage lagoon constructed on adjacent land, this material will be turned to dry it over the next few years and then re-used on the estate.
As part of the re-furbishment works the main spillway was repaired and a new monk structure constructed to manage the water level which can be seen in the foreground on the left. In addition a causeway was constructed across the middle of the lake forming a silt trap on the upstream side of it and serving as an established access for future dredging works.
