Another Busy Day

Friday, September 15th 2017

The team from Len Porter continued their installation of our new fences on the main area of heath today.

After continued preparations of the new fence lines on the small heath yesterday by our Thursday volunteer team there was lots to be tidied up. Some of the piles are now cleared, but we’ll have to finish next week!

Elsewhere on the reserve the Swaledale sheep that arrived last weekend seem to be settling in well and grazing contentedly at Plover’s Pool.

Meanwhile Fern, Florence and Dolly the Dexter cows, on loan from Big Sheep Little Cow, are continuing their job of grazing the wetland.
