Following on from the restoration work undertaken through the Tullamore Lions Club on Clonbeale More Bog in 2024, T\u00f3char Midlands Wetland Restoration were very happy to come on board with the land owner, James Grennan and the Lions Club to fund further restoration work on site as identified by ecologist, George Smith from Blackthorn Ecology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ecological report highlighted the need to install several overflow weirs at a location where a significant quantity of  water was trapped behind a long berm installed in September 2024.  This was to prevent a likely breach of this barrier. It also identified a drain previously hidden under dense rhododendron that required dams installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the removal of a huge amount of rhododendron from Clonbeale More in 2024, the nature of this invasive species is that it will continue to re-sprout and needs constant monitoring and management. So follow-up rhododendron removal was required to tackle the reoccurrence to ensure there are less seedlings for germinating across the site next summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are happy to report that the works outlined above are now complete. A contract to install the weirs, additional dams and eradicate the rhododendron was awarded to Brian Gorman and his team. Our thanks to Michael Carroll and the Tullamore Lions Club for their management of this project and to the land owner, James Grennan for doing his bit for climate change and wetland restoration in Co Offaly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
