Rare chalk stream habitat under the shadow of huge proposed data centre is restored |
The Environment Agency, Norfolk Rivers Trust and Water Resources East have been reshaping the riverbank and floodplain at Keswick Marsh as part of a bid to protect the surrounding environment.
The site lies on the banks of the River Yare, a rare chalk stream, close to Marston Marsh and around 600 metres from the site of Norwich Apex’s proposed 150MW data centre.
