KEBS, BLACKSHAW HEAD


1 team out today, all of whom were tasked with waymarking the path over from Dukes Cut towards Blackshaw Head village which passes through a very boggy and ill-defined area near Moss Hall Slades. The team consisted of Mick, Ken, Eleanor, Lynda, Peter, Frank S and Nigel and all were charged with inserting numerous waymark posts and applying yellow painted tops. Some minor repairs to stiles were also carried out.



Needless to say it was imperative to choose a nice sunny day for working at such altitude and Mick had ordered just the right sort of weather, apart from a rather biting wind.



Ken just happened to have a pair of step ladders in his van which came in very handy to gain a bit of extra height, although balancing on the boggy rough ground was not easy.



Eleanor applying an artistic touch to the marker posts.
