CRIMSWORTH

Frank, Rich, Eleanor Ginny and Nigel working on the paths through the woods near Middle Dean.
The first job was to sort out the waymarking on the paths. Then it was mainly cutting back on the lower path -  the vegetation was pushing out to the edge which has a steep drop.

The path before cutting back

The path after

4 lathes replaced on the bridge

Steps up to the mill dam cleared.
Scraping off mud to reveal stones at start of path
We then moved on to the upper path, putting in 3 marker posts and a grab post to help get over a fallen tree. More cutting back and a bit of drainage was completed.
One more session, then the path from Lumb Falls to Midgehole will all be sorted.
