Noisy petrol-driven pumps have been disturbing the peace at one of Lancashire’s best-loved beauty spots.
Councillor Paul Foster, Leader of South Ribble Borough Council, confirmed that the work was to improve water, which is home to an array of wildlife, swans, and is fished by members of an angling club.
He said: “There has been a drop on oxygen levels at the South Pond at Longton Brickcroft Nature reserve recently and therefore the Environment Agency have been working with the council and Longton Angling Club to raise oxygen levels using aerators.“This phase of work has now finished however further works are proposed to take place later in the year by the Angling Club.”Longton Brickcroft Nature Reserve can be accessed by foot and car from Liverpool Road, Longton – opposite Hall Lane.
