TODMORDEN: Obadiah Wood & Butts Lane

 Mick and Frank H out on another calm, sunny South Pennine day to do work involving marker posts.

Morning session:  Obadiah Wood, Cornholme.

 Here's Mick looking puzzled:



There are four paths meeting here but the exact directions are not clear.









. . .  some time later . . . one marker post in place. Digging and bar work (aka heavy grunting) by Frank H and artistic touches (aka yellow paint) by Mick.





We then moved further down the wood for more of the same.



. . .  some time later . . . another marker post in place. Digging and bar work (aka heavy grunting) by Frank H and artistic touches (aka yellow paint) by Mick!

 Readers may be getting a sense of deja vu!




Afternoon session: Butts Lane (off Great House Road)

Along the path that Frank S and Ken cleared in September (good work, guys) two marker posts needed re-instating. In the interests of sparing readers 'marker post fatigue' no pictures were taken but the division of labour was not dissimilar to that of the morning session . . . i.e. Mick hogged the paint brush!

Today's work was funded by Todmorden Town Council.
