In dry but bitterly cold conditions, Richard and Kasher spent the day sorting out a number of small jobs and then surveying forthcoming jobs in the Todmorden area.
Jobs included:
- Replacing a number of new "flags" onto marker posts (near Ragby Bridge and along Lumbutts Road)
- Drainage issues (Ramsden Wood)
- Replacement of cross-rails on a recently erected stile (Shaw Road)
- Adding in staples to treadboards on a number of new stiles
- Cutting back Quickthorn growing very close to a stile
- Way marking and re-erecting marker posts (Bearnshaw Tower)
- Surveying for new stiles along Tower Causeway and above Shaw Road
Today's work has been funded by kind donations from members of the public.Many thanks.
