Six of us met a little later than planned at Kingswood House this morning.

It's an amazing historic building that is being rejuvenated so it can be used as a community art space. Today's task was to weed the paving around the house.

The time we had was shorter than planned so we didn't quite finish it off, but we left it looking a lot neater than before, in preparation for the grand opening in April!
