Paper Mill Wood Cragg Vale

 

We were here

If you want a lovely walk from The Hinchcliffe Arms or the Robin Hood down to Mytholmroyd, this could be your path - through the beech trees of Paper Mill and Spa Woods and along the river to Dauber Bridge. Some of it is steep, and the steps there are showing their age.  Andy, Nick and Stella went up to replace four which were missing or very rotten.  Andy has taken on the job of checking the others on his regular walks over the next year or two, and organising a rolling programme of replacements as they become necessary. 

Today's job was funded by your generous donations to CROWS, for which we thank you.

Not a very big job, but a lot of tools and materials to carry,
so a 3-CROW outing,
                                               ,                                                                

Half-buried, half rotten...

...now cleared and 2 steps replaced 

This one was missing altogether....

....and has now been restored,
along with another a bit lower down
