After a number of exceptionally wet work parties on Fridays, it was a delight to have such a fantastic day to go out to undertake drainage work and way marking.
Catherine and Kasher headed off to Hartley Royd, above Cornholme, to replace a marker post at the junction of Todmorden 197 and 049. We also replaced faded way markers on nearby routes.

We then headed off towards Hudson Bridge to clear blocked turn-bys in order to get the water off this very popular route (Bridleway Tod 049).

Today's work has been funded by a kind donation in memory of Robert Harker who was a keen walker and a lover of the countryside.
