Work is progressing well on our Discovery Zone and Ferry Hide project. The pond and shelter are taking shape before our eyes.

The deeper section is where the old pond used to be and the raised bank means that it will be protected should the harbour overtop and flood the area with saltwater again.

Meanwhile where the old Ferry Hide once sat, the new viewing facility is emerging like a dragonfly emerging after its larval stage!

We are exactly one month into the works now marking a great way to finish the year and exciting prospects for 2018.

Thank you to everyone who has supported and made donations to this project. If you would like to help fund the project too, it’s not too late to ‘buy a plank’ – see the Friends of Pagham Harbour website www.foph.org.uk for more information.
