UPSTREAM COLDEN VALLEY & NOAH DALE

Ginny and Rich tackled a number of small jobs in an area which is mainly upland pasture or open moorland - quite a wild location! The waymarking here is haphazard - a significant problem if the weather is poor.

New waymark post

At the junction by a ruined house, Ginny (we hope) sorted out a drainage issue, and all rights-of-way were waymarked.

 

We just liked this gate - battered by Pennine rain but still functioning.

Altogether 16 waymarks were put up, some cutting back was done and drainage issues may have been solved - a good day all round.

The work funded by a grant from Heptonstall Parish Council. Many thanks. 

Thanks also to landowners for providing access.
