NEARLY THERE: 29TH NOV 2016

img_20161129_130851319_hdr100 yards complete, 20 yards to go.  So  good reason for the trowels-up sign. We are nearly there in completing the towp-path edge at Coed Gwilym which will help prevent flooding. However, we found a few more yards of edging that were quite low so we added more sandbags to the existing wall this week and we can lay the coping stones on it when it has hardened off next week.
