Fence work on the Styal estate on Sunday 17th July 2016

Five of us were working on the latest acquisition at Bank House farm on the Styal estate, taking out an old and decrepit fence so that it can be replaced by a new one at a later date.

We stacked the old material near to the path and in the afternoon we carried it down to the former yard at the farm to await collection and disposal.

The new fence will be installed by contractors and will only roughly follow the old line.
The field is of conservation importance as it is an unimproved meadow and will one day be let for grazing.
