You remember that rickety stile above the road from Old Chamber onto the footpath across the fields to Jumps?

Well, it is rickety no more! Andy & Stella beat the rain to dig out the rotten stile legs, and replace the step and cross-rails with new timbers.
 |
| The legs were rotten, the step very wobbly |
 |
| And the ascent/descent from/to the road |
is steep
 | Now you can step up...
|
 |
| ...or down with confidence. |
It may be possible to put a dog-gate in too but that needs discussion with the farmer about re-tensioning her stock-fence. The next stile up the field is also tricky . . . we'll contact the landowner to see if any improvements can be made.
This work was funded by donations to CROWS. Thank you.
