HURST ROAD: JOAN WOOD

Billie and Stella worked on this lovely path from Hurst Road down through the beautifully-named Joan Wood.  We cut back brambles and nettles that were encroaching on the path and cleared vegetation which was almost blocking the two steps and forcing people off to the side.  The flowers either side of the path are lovely just now, so we didn't disturb them. (Sorry no pics of this part of the work).

In the wood itself, the path through the beech trees follows an old cobbled way which is hardly discernible under compacted soil.  We put in a waymark post and cleared enough of the cobbled way to make the route visible.

This work was funded by Hebden Royd Council.
