Work on restoring a 24-hectare wetland site which was due to start this year is now set to begin in summer 2026, a wildlife trust has said.

A grazing marsh between West Kirby and Hoylake in Wirral, Merseyside, will be restored by Cheshire Wildlife Trust (CWT) working with Wirral Council.

The trust said the project will reduce the area's flood risk and support wildlife in the Dee Estuary, which is an internationally important habitat for migrating birds.
