Rolling Programme of general maintenance

General maintenance at Reydon is undertaken throughout the year by the volunteer Thursday work parties in conjunction with a hedge and grass cutting contract and Saturday work parties during the closed season. General maintenance at Kessingland is carried out throughout the year by a small group of dedicated local volunteers.

Reydon Complex

During each closed season a rolling programme of larger scale project delivery and maintenance is undertaken.


  • Replacement or major repair of platforms

    • Cost ​over the last three years was circa £4500 for materials with labour provided by the volunteer Thursday work parties.

    • Partially delivered - Awaiting yearly project appraisal undertaken each spring prior to the closed season, however a yearly allowance of £1500 appears to be reasonable.


  • Provision of physical bank support between and to the rear of platforms

    • Cost ​over the last three years was circa £3500 for materials with labour provided by the volunteer Thursday work parties.

    • Partially delivered - Awaiting yearly project appraisal undertaken each spring prior to the closed season. Costs are expected to rise with the increasing level of bank slipage along the western side of Pit 1 and erosion beneath platforms in pits 1 and 2 which has built up over a number of years.


  • 50th Anniversary Project - Reydon


  • Regeneration of Buss Creek.

    • This a longer term major project requiring significant project appraisal and deliverability assessment above and beyond the society's present human, technical and financial resources.

    • Initial project appraisal including engagement with statutory agencies, expert advisors, potential contractors and sources of funding is ear marked for June 2026


Kessingland

  • Five year programme of phased works

    • Following a condition survey of the Kessingland site in November 2025 the committee has agreed the allocation of funding for a five year phased programme of works. Delivery of the works is dependent upon prior agreement of a new renewable lease from the sites riparian owner. See seperate project sheet.
