TODMORDEN - Cross Stone area

 On a rather wet day Fred, RJ and Neil Mc ventured to Little Cornwall (a long way from Todmorden!) to strim and cut back on a walled lane. 

Little Cornwall is the local name for the group of houses, many painted white, below Cross Stone Church. The footpath is a useful local path which starts on Millwood Lane and crosses Broadstone Street before coming to Little Cornwall. It is a route that features on one of the short "Bus Walks" from Todmorden.

The team also carried out a test run on a re-furbished strimmer/brush cutter which had been donated to CROWS. Many thanks. This strimmer will help us in our battle against the summer's lush vegetation that is blocking public rights-of-way.


The route to/from Little Cornwall.


Today's work was funded by Todmorden Town Council. Many thanks


Willowherb has taken over this pathway.-
It just goes to show there's no stopping
 Epilobium angustifolium!


The strimmed route with a distant
 CROW - possibly Corvus Corone.
Mmm! What a carry on!
