A NEW nature recovery project near Hadrian's Wall is set to transform over 11,000 acres of farmland and forest into a thriving, connected landscape for wildlife, people, and climate resilience.

- TONY HENDERSON

The Hadrian's Wall Wetland Landscape Recovery project covers an area four times the size of Kielder Water.

Following a two-year development phase, Northumberland National Park aims to secure long-term public and private investment for a 20-year delivery programme, making this one of the UK's most significant landscape-scale recovery efforts.

Thanks to a £750,000 grant from DEFRA'S Landscape Recovery scheme, the venture will restore and reconnect rare habitats, supporting species like curlew, otter, osprey and water vole, while helping farmers adapt to climate change.
