All Downhill from Here

At our work party on Sunday September 8th we carried on from the previous work party to complete the clearance of the path from the bridge down to the ride past the allotments towards post 2. We had reached the pylon last time so it was all downhill from there.

You can see that the path was getting narrower as the grass and other vegetation encroached.

Andy and Eric started at the top then worked their way downhill ... 

... while Alan R and Chris began at the bottom and worked uphill. I went to the middle and did some uphill, and some downhill. 

When Chris had finished his section at the bottom of the hill he came up to help me finish the middle bit, and join up with 'down hillers'. Alan R finished off the bits left by the BT volunteers the previous Thursday.

Before long the the two sections met and we had a complete path again. Some strenuous work on a sunny morning to achieve our objective.
