Friday, 9 February 2018: the Meanwood Valley Trail

18-02-09-P1100037Today, David, Rob and your correspondent joined Roger Brookes of Leeds City Council to walk the Meanwood Valley Trail from the Stairfoot Lane car park to the Seven Arches aqueduct.  This is the stretch of the trail which falls within the area looked after by Friends of Adel Woods.

Our mission was to determine whether additional way markers are needed to help guide walkers using the trail.

In 2010 Friends of Adel Woods spent a number of days painting yellow way marker arrows on rocks and stones – see for example our blog entry for 26 June 2010.  Our arrows are still visible, though becoming fainter and harder to see.

Our conclusion today was that we need half a dozen additional 5′ posts with arrows and MVT logos.
