About this grant
TE10 is a capital grant item under Natural England's Countryside Stewardship scheme that funds the coppicing of bankside trees. Coppicing improves the longevity of trees growing on or within 5 metres of streamside or riverbank locations, providing valuable habitat and habitat corridors in river valley and wetland landscapes. The work can help increase light reaching the river, stabilise riverbanks and ditch banks. Applicants must coppice trees between 1 September and 1 March, cutting between 7.5 and 15 centimetres above ground level, and protect regrowth from livestock, deer and rabbits while controlling weed species. The work applies to individual or small groups of trees not currently managed under regular coppicing programmes.
