STILE REBUILD AT CROFT FARM, LUMBUTTS

Andrew and Ray were sent to rebuild a stile near Croft Farm, Lumbutts on the Calderdale Way as part of the Todmorden Volunteer Week. The day was overcast with a chilly breeze and occasional showers.

This was the stile originally with a rotten step leg and cross piece.


Several of the cross-rails were also rotten.


We replaced the rotten cross-rails and the step leg (which doesn't look new because we recycled a redundant finger post!) and then added a new grab pole to assist people crossing the stile.
.

New cross-rails added to the side of the stile.


An extra lower step added to the stile.

Today's job was funded by donations to CROWS. Many thanks.
