On a lovely bright and clear November day Andrew and Kasher worked in Lumbutts and Mankinholes undertaking a number of small(ish) tasks:
1 Repairing a stile on Tod 159 near Higher Langfield Farm, off Lumbutts Rd.
2 Installing a replacement markerpost on Tod 157 above the Shepherds Rest on the route to Jail Hole Quarry.
3 Removing a Langfield Common sign on Tod 179 at the junction with London Road. This will be taken back to the depot, dried out, sanded, stained and will then be reinstated asap.
4 Painting a marker post (blue) at the junction of two bridleways BW171 and BW170. This post had, inadvertently, previously been painted yellow.
5 Replacing the repaired Langfield Common sign on Tod 167 above Lumbutts Chapel.
6 Checking out two footpaths (Tod 188 and Tod 203) at the bottom end of Lumbutts Road, that the Council had informed us as being overgrown and in need of clearing. Looks like someone managed to do this before us!
Today's work has been funded by individual donations to CROWS. Many thanks. We would not be able to continue to do this work without a whole host of people donating to CROWS. This really is appreciated!
