Description: River bank repair on the River Avon, at Mead Lane Saltford. The natural bank is being strengthened with boulders and logs as seen on the left, then covered with a jute or hessian material which allows plant growth through the material. A minor road, Mead Lane, is on the river bank, and requires protection from erosion. Work carried out for British Waterways.
