Broadleaf weed / invasive species removal at Styal 2 June 2013

Four of our volunteers turned out and met up with the rangers at Styal.

Five of use spent the day removing Himalayan balsam, broad leaved dock, and ragwort from a field near the Bollin at the Alrincham Road end of the estate. We had some impact on the problem but there was a lot of dock to attack and quite a lot of it is still there.
