New Life on the Old West project area

New Life on the Old West delivered wildlife habitat enhancements in green spaces and the surrounding countryside near the Old West River in the Cambridgeshire Fens. A map of the project area is shown below, with more details available by hovering over it.

The project took its name from the Old West River — the stretch of the River Great Ouse flowing east from Earith, at the southern end of the 21-mile-long Ouse Washes. From Earith, the river meanders through the countryside until it meets the lower Cam and Ely Ouse just south of Stretham.
