view into wood at lunch time - quite a clear pach |
Eleven of us spent today in the sunshine at Dunham Massey uprooting Himalayan balsam from a stretch of riverbank beside the Bollin and in the wood near the Scout camp. In the wood we cleared an impressive 800 square metres! One advantage of the wet summer is that the ground in the wood was soft and the balsam, which are shallow-rooted plants, were easy to pull out. In places they had grown 8 feet tall! We separated the roots from the stems and piled the plants up. They will soon begin to rot down.
