Bramble clearing and tree-pruning in the young plantation areas. Re-erecting the lunch shelter. Repairs to the board-walk. The making of six new shave horses. The making of two new work-benches for the workshop area. A big thank-you from the Sallerton Wood Team to all of you who helped during this week. | |
