FREISTON SHORE

Designated as a Special Protection Area, Freiston Shore benefits wintering, passage, and nesting birds, offering the public excellent viewing opportunities. Freiston Shore underwent one of the largest managed realignment schemes in the UK, transforming 66 hectares of farmland into tidal saltmarsh. This initiative included the creation of a saline lagoon and the conversion of arable land into wet grassland, providing a conducive environment for birds like redshank, avocet, and ringed plover. The regenerated salt marsh serves as valuable wildlife habitats
