Chair’s Report 2023

Workdays have been well-attended by a handful of local volunteers, TCV and Good Gym. Unlike last year, when we made not one but two new hoggin paths, we have built no new paths at all this year. We have however improved our existing paths: we used logs to better define the edges of the Woodland Walk where the original wooden edges had rotted and disappeared.

In Praise of Hornbeams

The hornbeam is one of the most versatile British trees. Freestanding mature specimens, with their characteristic conical crowns, have considerable amenity value, whilst the wood, the hardest of any tree in Europe, provides valuable timber for furniture.

Boardwalk restored

Thanks to the efforts of two valiant volunteers, the crumbling old boardwalk, the pathway that leads into the meadow, has been restored to its former glory. All done within a day. We thank one of our neighbours for donating some unwanted decking, which has been repurposed successfully as you can see in the picture.  A great job done.
