Vicar Water flows through the Nottinghamshire country park of the same name and then alongside Clipstone Colliery.

Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust (NWT) says a 600m (1,968ft) section - from the nearby railway bridge to Baulkner Lane - was previously heavily modified, with much of it buried underground during the mining construction in the 1950s.

The project will restore a "more natural river channel" through "deculverting", the trust says, and will introduce measures to improve water flow.
