We identified two stands of Carex secta that were under pressure from honey suckle and black berry. Cerax secta does not do well in the shade or being over grown. One stand is quite close to the foot bridge. Half is already dead. We have cut away all the vines and trimmed back the willow to let the sun in. We them replanted with seedling Carex to boost their numbers. The other stand is up the gully at the back of Sexton Road. It is a lot healthier although there are some dead stumps as well.
