Footpath Repairs

Yesterday volunteers worked repairing a section of path between the wetland hide and the moorland. Over time some of the stakes and side supports have rotted away causing sections of the path to drop away resulting in an unsafe surface. Affected areas were first dug out and the old boarding and stakes removed.

Sections of boarding were then repaired or replaced and staked in place.

New stone was added and compacted to give a level finish to the path.

This has improved the pathway in this area considerably; work here will be completed over the next week.  Thank you all for your help on this task.
