A weekend of steps and goats in Wensley

June 6, 2013 by Julian

Last weekend (Friday 31st May to Sunday 2nd June) some of us headed off into the Peaks for a weekend away.  Our work over the Saturday and Sunday was to help the Peak Park Conservation Volunteers to improve a footpath in the village of Wensley through the construction of some steps.  It was a great location, the sun shone all the time, and the hillside we were working on was home to four friendly goats who took quite an interest in what we were up to!
