yes, a couple of thoughts. It looks like a good balance of ecology (plants and otters etc) and culture (buildings and archaeology etc). One thing it doesnt discuss is the silt/sediment that sits around the Shore, just under the surface of the water. I'm no expert but surely this is here because the river is blocked and it will need scooping out before it builds up to break the surface of the water? Once it is over the surface of the water it will start to get a bit smelly and look awful. The management plan needs to include a view on this issue. I'm looking forward to seeing the Gormley sculptures put in place.
