RYBURN - behind the Bowling Club

Jerry and Jak set out on a beautiful day to cut back this short section of path which runs behind the Bowling Club from Mill Fold Way. It links to a path that goes up to the disused railway line. 

Location of path

The path is slippery and very wet in places because a lot of water runs off the hillside. As well as cutting back, a turnby was created in order to divert some of the water from the path.

Scraping the mud

More mud scraping

Path drying out already!


Still some water but a big improvement

There is a lot of Himalayan balsam at one end of the path (because of the excessive dampness) but it's still a bit too early to tackle that.

This work was funded by donations to CROWS for which many thanks.
