Our first job today was to rescue the vandalised Kingfisher sculptures one of which had been thrown into the stream.

We then split into two teams, one team coppicing the Hazel trees, with Phil from friends of Haymill branching out to slash the greenery back from encroaching on the path. The coppicing team included Sheila who is handy with a saw and loppers.

Team two split into sub teams with Pepsi and Jenny donning waders and starting to build a more natural second dam and Bob and Jen chopping down more branches to act as stakes for the dam.

We even managed to fit a litter pick in too so a good morning all round with a great workout.
