Butts below Heights Road

Locations - Eastern end of Raw Lane and path besides Butts
Problems water filled pot holes in - Raw lane and a trailer and creeping vegetation blocking the path at Butts.
Team - Gerald, Dick, Ginny, Fred, Richard J and Rich
Weather - sunny and warm - glorious!

The potholes on Raw Lane were filled in, the turnby cleaned out and surface mud scraped off, but not sure how effective this will be due to vehicles still using the track, will have to return.


 At the bottom the route of the path was blocked by an old trailer and overhanging vegetation


 Trailer now removed, setted surface revealed and waymark post put in

 Vegetation narrowing the path before we started

Work in progress - cutting back the brambles to find out what is underneath

 Top of the path cleared back and widened


Middle section of the path cleared and widened

And we met a great group of walkers from Midgley who were doing the boundary walk.
