Lynda and Eleanor returned to the bottom of Cockpit Lane to finish cutting back on this much used public byway. The first job was to reveal the fingerpost which was hidden by foliage ...
and then we continued up the path, cutting back overhanging branches to enable horse riders to pass more easily. That done, we went to Bank Hey Bottom Lane. First, dinner.....
on a very messy bench, hidden from view and surrounded by overhang and mulch gradually rotting away the wood. The bench is dedicated to members of the Oldham family.
Hopefully it'll save this bench for a few more years yet.
Near the bench was this overgrown flight of steps at the bottom of a path up the hillside
Definitely more inviting now .....
