The new workshop

Wednesday, July 8th 2009

Work is continuing on the new workshop. Here you can see Harry, the carpenter, installing the cladding to the outside of the building. He will be here most of the week but hopes to be finished by Friday. All we need now are the doors and windows!!

As well as Harry we have had our volunteers here today. Work done on the reserve included strimming of footpaths, bracken management, mowing net rides and replacing one of the broken posts on the front lawns. All this and making new picnic tables too.

The moth trap was set last thing. The warm, damp weather should be perfect for a good catch. Watch this space tomorrow for details.
