First session on this great old route along the hillside above the Ripponden Valley. Guy, Andy Ian S, Rich, Steve, Jerry and Angus tackled several cutting back jobs (mainly holly), removal of two fallen trees, several drainage issues, waymarking, and fixing a stile. Plenty more to do on this route! Today's work was funded by Calderdale Highways.
At the start of the path we cut back the holly and added a waymark.
