Today we continued with the repair of the steps in the central area of the Reserve and now they are almost complete. We had to replace some risers, continue weeding and refilling with crusher run. We pruned back the dogwood that grows over the steps.
We also worked in the woodland area on the slope above the entrance. This area has not had any managament done for several years. We started by clearing the blackthorn that was blocking the gate and then selectively thinning some dead and crowded trees. We high pruned others and will continue with the thinning task next winter.
