Seven Lochs Wetland Park

[2] In the period beginning in 2010 through to the date of the Masterplan in March 2013, SIGMA for Water had engagement with 11 other projects in 8 European countries.

The seven Lochs arose after the retreat of the last Ice Age and lie close together towards the north east of Glagow in an area once known for coal mining, iron smelting and other heavy industrial uses.

The projected park was to combine many existing features so as to create a large wildlife and recreation area in proximity to urban communities at its boundaries.

The process was designed to engage those communities, to clean up the project area and to render its spaces more attractive and safe.

[13] The original Seven Lochs Partnership dates from April 2014 when an Implementation and Collaboration Agreement was entered into between five bodies.
