THE WEEK AHEAD: 12TH NOVEMBER TO 18TH NOVEMBER 2017

20171031_113137_001TUESDAY 14TH NOV: Work Party meets at Brownsters between 8.00 and 9.00am. Work starts as last week at two sites.

1. Clydach Lock: Torrential rain prevented any pointing being done last week. Today,  we will firstly clear the millions of leaves which clog the entrance to the by-wash and the lock itself. If there is no rain we will do the pointing between the sleepers and the top coping stones. We will also cut off the top of the protuding bolts.

2. Old Highways Depot: Complete ramped and gently sloping wall to the south. Start Heras Fencing installation to the the north starting from St Benedicts Church  car park.
