| Rain
run-off is a contributing factor to erosion on the Hills. The different
soils, rock types and vegetation can affect this to a greater or lesser
extent. Come and visit the Hills to discover the impact at first hand. |
Erosion
at the Lickeys is influenced by nature and humans. Discover the processes
at work for both which can lead to minor trickles up to large gullies.
Learn how the rangers manage with both influences. |
The
ditches are one way of managing water on the Lickeys and can be found
across the site. The gullies are found where water erosion has affected
the ground.

The
Lickeys has a mid-England watershed running across it. The source of the
river Arrow is found on Beacon Hill while on the other side of the Hill
the water ends up in the
River Rea. The Arrow ends up in the Bristol
Channel while the Rea ends up in the North Sea.
