Power pruning

In case you have been in Filnore Woods lately and wonderd why so much cutting has gone just up from the footbridge, it is the three yearly vegetation maintenance that the power companies undertake.  There must be no danger of trees getting too close to the overhead high tension cables.

As well as a few neat piles of logs and large amounts of hazel prunings, they have left us some woodchip, which we may be able to use to beef up the steps and paths.

The nettles and other plants which had grown up under the pylon have also been cleared.
