Tidal weirs do not look after themselves. Invasive seaweed blocks the channels, the water fails to drain during the ebb, and the pressure tears the wattle panels out at their base. Fixing it is manual work, done in the few hours the tide allows, and it has to be done again and again.
We publish that work because it is the clearest way to show where the association's funding goes, and because some of the storm damage is beyond what it can take on alone.
A guided visit is the way to see the weirs from the inside, and it funds their conservation.
