Worsestill, this could be a relatively positive outcome. It could end up like some of the half-cocked attempts at restoration you see up on the Northumberland coastal plain. Where the water drains off in the summer, floods in the winer, and the 'attractions' never take off, so end up as windswept white elephants.
