Abstract

Summary This paper compares the ethical and political issues raised by two environmental restoration schemes in England: those of the River Skerne and the A33 near Twyford Down. Neither example fully restores a ‘natural’ condition, nor tries to, but both raise questions about how far restoration is an acceptable option for environmental management.
