Peatland Restoration Yorkshire
Looking for peatland restoration in Yorkshire?
TreeClear UK is dedicated to restoring and safeguarding Yorkshire’s precious peatlands.
Peatlands play a major role in supporting biodiversity, improving water quality, and capturing carbon.
However, many of Yorkshire’s peat bogs have deteriorated due to drainage, poor management, and the effects of climate change which are devastating and will continue to get worse if we don’t act fast.
Our goal is to repair this damage using proven restoration methods that provide lasting environmental and community benefits.

- Drainage Channel Blocking
- Creation of Ponds and Scrapes
- Bunding and Wetland Rehydration

Why Peatland Restoration Matters in Yorkshire
Yorkshire boasts some incredible peat landscapes, from vast wetlands to diverse moorlands. These ecosystems are vital for carbon storage, water regulation, and providing habitats for rare wildlife.
Sadly, years of degradation have compromised these peatlands, leading to carbon release and habitat loss. Fortunately, TreeClear UK delivers tailored solutions to restore and sustain these valuable environments.
Healthy peatlands are essential for climate revitalisation, biodiversity conservation, and water management. Our services focus on reviving peatlands and ecosystems so that they can serve us and the surrounding communities for the years to come.
Our key peatland restoration services include:
Surface Mulching
Surface mulching rejuvenates damaged peatlands by spreading chopped native vegetation like heather to form a protective layer. This mulch conserves soil moisture, enriches organic content, and promotes native plant growth crucial for peat development.
Stump Grinding & Stump Augering
To convert what was forested or drained lands back into thriving peat bogs, we employ stump grinding and augering activities. Using specialised low-pressure machinery with hydraulic grinding wheels, we remove tree stumps effectively, preparing the land for natural peat recovery.
Ditch Blocking and Peat Dams
Controlling water flow is vital for peatland health. We block old drainage channels and construct peat bunds to restore the underground boundaries, helping peatlands regain their biodiversity and carbon storage functions.
Reprofiling and Bunding
Land reshaping through reprofiling and bunding improves water retention and supports peat regeneration. Bunds and strategically placed ditches help maintain wet conditions, fostering the growth of peat-forming vegetation.
