Description

The site includes a stretch of Dipton Stream and a small area of flaxland. The flaxland has a high ecological value and contains some man made pools that provide additional habitat for water fowl and aquatic invertebrates. The site is owned by Rural Women and the Dipton Landcare group is co-ordinating the restoration works. Improving access has been the first priority and there is short walking track from the road. The group has also carried out planting and weed control.
