Busy day winching felled logs from the woodlands. It may have disturbed the ground, but this is for long-term gain. We are opening up the woodlands, removing diseased larch and ash, allowing natural regeneration of native trees. Holly starting to grow here already! A grateful Robin keeping an eye on us and looking for worms in the disturbed earth. ... See MoreSee Less

We are looking to improve some paths up the Woodlands, which ones do you think are the priorities? Where would you like to see a bench or seating? Please comment below. ... See MoreSee Less

I'm not sure if the path across the road where the gate was stolen, is part of your area but if it is something needs to be done there. It's been destroyed since the last storm and each time I walk there after rain, I pick up at least a pocket full of sharp glass. Seems like it was made originally not only with rubble but broken glass and ceramics as well 😒 It's "only" the part which goes down hill.

Perhaps to make it easier for us to know the exact location, could you take a photo and use what3words

Definitely the paths going to the right and to the left if you go into the woodlands from the top of Darby Crescent (Hilltop) - they’re pretty much unusable in the winter as the mud is so deep 😊🀞
