2-year restoration of Middlesex filter beds in London's Lee Valley Regional Park revives wetland habitat for urban biodiversity.

The Middlesex filter beds in London's Lee Valley Regional Park have undergone a successful two-year restoration, transforming them into a wetland habitat to boost urban biodiversity. Collaborating with volunteers and experts, the project aimed to recover the area, which had suffered from water loss due to equipment theft. Originally built in the 1860s to combat cholera, the restored site is expected to attract amphibians, dragonflies, and birds back to the ecosystem.
