HFG – Strikes again!

With the weather finally kind to us, most of our group turned out for a workparty the other Sunday.
We attended to several issues on the path from Hodnet to Fauls, the main one of which was to rebuild a long damaged stile. The photos below show our progress, with special thanks to Stephen and Tom who did most of the hardwork – with Stephen doing the paddling! – alongside the ever present Alfie (dog).
The rest of our group, including two newish members who said they really enjoyed themselves repaired some wobbly steps and cut back trees/vegetation.  If you like the sound of that, please do get in touch to join us/find out more HERE – people do as much or as little as they enjoy/are capable of.
