RSPB Cymru Peatland Restoration 2025-2026: Berwyn SSSI

Tender description

RSPB Cymru is looking to appoint a contractor to deliver peatland restoration works on a privately owned site, south of Llangollen. The site is part of the Berwyn SSSI, SPA, and SAC, and is designated in part for blanket bog habitats. The contractor will be working to raise water tables across the blanket bog by blocking drainage ditches, gullies, and peat pipes with peat dams, reprofiling hags, and constructing low contour bunds. The most common repair required is bare peat needing to be covered with vegetation nearby. Historic management has meant the site is extremely heather dominated. Therefore, a contractor who is careful and methodical is required to ensure all features are blocked in this year’s area of works.NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the Sell2Wales Web Site at https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=153433.The buyer has indicated that it will accept electronic responses to this notice via the Postbox facility.
