Bruern weir removal project near the village of Milton Under Wychwood, in West Oxfordshire, UK

Removed in 2024, the old stone weir with concrete topping had approximately 4-meter in length and measured 1 meter in height.

This project, though small in scale, is one of the pioneering efforts in the Evenlode catchment area. It serves as a case study for addressing similar barriers within the region. Ultimately, the project aimed to facilitate fish passage, mprove local hydromorphology, restore natural sediment transportation, and enhance the overall river habitat.
The initiative is part of the broader efforts by the Evenlode Catchment Partnership (ECP) to achieve good ecological health for the river Evenlode catchment.
