A third visit to the footpath between Rodmer Clough Farm and Lower Fold (Heptonstall 025 . . . AKA Park Lane).
Today's team of Neil M and Kasher completed the following tasks:
a) Staples added to the new boardwalk
The old boardwalk (before). |
The new boardwalk completed. |
b) New yellow-topped posts installed to clearly mark the correct route (i.e. on the wall side and not the field side of the stream)
Neil attacking the tussocks... with new yellow-topped posts visible. |
c) Original surviving yellow-topped posts reinstated
d) Path widened by the side of the clough. This may need further work next Spring to counteract any further erosion.
e) Overhanging trees cut back
The very narrow path by the clough. |

Today's work was funded by Little Box Consulting. Many thanks.
