Thurstaston Common

9 Volunteers and 2 members of staff turned out and spent the day, cutting birch and chipping to maintain the heathland habitat in areas than cannot be practically grazed.

Thurstaston common is on the Wirral and for our group the trip involves meeting up in Styal and car sharing for the 100 mile round trip. This may explain why 7 of the volunteers were from the Chester group.

They appeared to enjoy the victoria sponge I took. The weather was grey but mostly dry.
