Andy, Ginny and Rich had five jobs to sort:
- A drainage problem and waymarking near Stoney Royd Farm
- A reported problem with a kissing gate at New Bridge
- Drainage on the riverside path near Clough Bridge
- Levelling a path and sorting a collapsed stile on the riverside path towards Dauber Bridge
Today's work was funded by a generous donation from Cragg Vale Community Association.
PATH ALONG THE EDGE OF BELL HOUSE MOOR
The path was sinking into the mire in a couple of places. In one place we were able to uncover some sunken stones to create a dry route. In both spots we needed to direct people towards the wall to access a relatively dry route.
DRAINAGE ON THE RIVERSIDE PATH
A periodic visit to clear out a ditch that was over-topping onto the path -it should dry out soon! Extra waymarking was done at the path junction.
PATH LEVELLING AND STILE SORTING
The narrow path heading towards Dauber Bridge was tricky to walk along. The bank was cut back and made more level. Further along, the stile had totally collapsed across the path. The post and rails were removed as it was no longer needed for stock control.
