Bourne Valley Park was remodelled in 2008 to provide a more diverse environment for local residents and to cope with storm water runoffs, with terraced stream channel, basins & weir. For water to pass down the top of the weir was predicted to a be a once in twenty years event; but it happened three times in 2007! http://www.bournestreampartnership.org.uk/alderneyprojectdiary_I.htm#Weir%20Watching,
