Angus, Lynda and Rich continued working on this path towards Old Ripponden Bank. Today's jobs were re-erecting a fingerpost, cutting back encroaching holly, three drainage issues and some waymarking. Today's work was funded by Calderdale Highways.

| Holly cut back, path now accessible |
 |
| Reinvigorated post |
Then it was on to three drainage issues where water was running over the path and, in each case, creating a quagmire.
We were able to channel the water so the land will dry out and it will be easy to step over the channel.

| Channels and stepping stones |
 |
| Washing the tools |
 |
| Cutting back the path running with water (no longer) |
The last job was to renew the yellow blobs on the trees through the beech wood so people can see where the path goes.
We have about half-finished the work on this path, so we might take a break and do some earlier reported jobs.
