Monthly Archives: September 2011

Thanks to the eight Friends who came along on this first Sunday of Autumn – egged along no doubt by the tantalising smell of bacon sandwiches coming from Old Leo’s.

Before…

Several bags of litter were picked, and major work was done on widening the path along Crag Lane  which has become narrower and narrower over the last couple of years.

Of course, there was also time to chat and set the world to rights!

…and after.

Looking North from the Southern boundary of the bog

Your correspondent, David and Tom met Steve Joul this morning to have a look at Adel Bog.  We are all impressed by the work done by BTCV and discussed the additional work FOAW can do at our event on Saturday 22 October.

By then BTCV will have done a further two days work bringing the total to nine days.

Gravel from the path had fallen onto the top of the steps down from Stairfoot Lane car park to the stream.  David and your faithful reporter spent half an hour removing the offending stones.

We then went and had a look at the bog.
