We were pleased to welcome students again from the University’s Conservation Society who with our members did sterling work barrowing and laying planings on the paths close to Old Durham, replacing steps, collecting fly-tipping and clearing leaves from the Silver Link Bridge. We finished at 3.00 pm and returned to Tony’s later for a bonfire with mulled wine, hot-dogs and potatoes. Many thanks Barbara and Tony for your hospitality again.
There has been a lot of fly-tipping in the Wood and nearby; hopefully our local councilors will get this issue resolved soon. The Council will also be clearing the Beck culvert and installing some means of preventing debris from being washed into it.
Our next meeting will be on Sunday 7 December.
