Rain, sleet and mud at Alderley Edge

March 7, 2017 by Julian

This past Sunday, six hardy volunteers braved rain, sleet and mud to give the National Trust rangers at Alderley Edge a hand with path maintenance!  The work was to clear and dig the mud off a path which ought then to dry out for easier access later in the year, thereby taking the pressure off the other paths in the area, which otherwise get badly worn. A couple of channels to divert water away from the path were also put in place.  Congratulations on the perseverance shown by those who turned out!
