Alderly Edge Heathland restoration 22 September 2013

Five volunteers turned out and spent the day on a heathland restoration project - removing brramble and unwanted saplings from a grazing paddock - to increase the proportions of "desirable" species such as heather and billberry. Slow heavy work - we recon over the two weeks we may have covered an area similar to a tennis court.  - photo of three vounteers admiring/ discussing the cleared area and the pile!
