TODMORDEN - Cutting Back & Tree Guards

Friday 26th June

There were two teams out from Todmorden today.

Team 1: Mick and Ken: raising the tree guards at Guide Quarry the start of the Geology trail

Team 2: David, RJ & Catherine: continued the work started last week cutting back on Tod BW 059 below the dinosaur and below Kitson Royd Farm, off Pudding Lane. This week it was the next section of the path down towards Pitts.

Today's work has been funded donations to Crows (Team 1's work) and by Calderdale Council Highways (Team 2's work). Many thanks.


Team 1 at Guide Quarry


These trees planted by Crows have grown
well but are now at munching height.


So the guards needed building up.


Ken and Mick have sorted it for now!


Team 2 worked here.

The path lower down was overgrown.


Easier to negotiate now.
