ABOVE POPPPLES COMMON AND THE PENNINE WAY

Ginny and Rich tackled several jobs in this part of Heptonstall Parish.

First was to waymark a three-way junction above Knoll Top.


Next we had to deal with a finger post, on the same track, that had been snapped off.
Post re-erected - albeit a lot shorter than before!

On to Edge Lane where we had three jobs to do.

Cutting back the Pennine Way up from the Lane

Trees and encroaching heather all cut back

 

Cutting back the gorse that was making people leave the path.

Then up the hill to the edge of Heptonstall Moor to put in a waymark post on Pennine Way.

Good to be out working again.
