Today was Day Three on this Pennine Way job. On Day 1 we cut back the path, began clearing the steps and replaced some rotten risers. On Day 2 we continued the cut back and cleared more steps in preparations for today's session which was to finish clearing the steps, doing more cutting back and re-stoning the tread areas.
Nic, Jan, Jerry, Stella and Rich arrived to find a one tonne bag of 'crusher-run' delivered to the path by a local farmer - many thanks.
This work was funded by a partnership between Natural England and Calderdale Highways.
It was a warm day of . . . up and down the path . . . with wheelbarrow, trugs, shovels, rakes and a heavy tamper.

| Very different to Day 1 when we arrived! |
The second job we tackled was on the Calderdale Way where a very overgrown section was forcing people to deviate from the paved path.

| Before and after |
Many thanks to Heptonstall Parish Council for funding this job.
