What a difference a week makes! Last Wednesday was a beautiful autumnal day –
today was a complete contrast with persistent rain. We continued the work started last week with putting
cut wood into dead hedges around the site.
More of the meadow area was cleared so further raking was
undertaken. Work was also started on the
steps leading to the stream (these used to be a boardwalk). The undergrowth to the sides of the steps was
cut back and the steps were topped up with limestone chippings. Stands of bay around the site were cut back as
were the edges of the paths.
Update - please see photo below sent by Anita, the Ranger at Fort Victoria, that shows one of the ponds we worked on (8th Oct) now filling up with water.
