The Kingston Council announced a significant restoration project at Tolworth Court Farm Fields, South London's largest nature reserve, aimed at creating a wildlife sanctuary. The £500,000 initiative will restore historic wetlands, introduce new ponds, and enhance biodiversity. A wheelchair-accessible boardwalk will be installed for visitor access, while grazing cows and pigs will promote soil health. Funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund and Mayor's Rewild London Fund, the project aims to boost flood protection and climate resilience, marking a crucial step in urban rewilding efforts in London.
A major restoration project will transform South London's largest nature reserve into a pioneering wildlife sanctuary, Kingston Council has announced.
