Friends of Filnore Woods Volunteers set about path repairs last Sunday, in the Valley Woodland, near posts 9 and 10. Derek is also sawing down a dead elder by the path.
Poles have to be fixed on the downhill side to prevent erosion of the path. Both the poles and the pegs to hold them in place are made from wood harvested on site. The pegs are nailed into the poles to hold them in place. Here are Jim and Peter at work. Note lump hammer in Jim's hand and Silky saw in red transport device.
The path is then built up with woodchip, when we can get enough.
Derek, Andy and Eric with, respectively, lump hammer, drill and refreshment.
Half a dozen sharpened pegs on the floor.
