Last week we were back at the Rocheid Path. We continued with edging 88 metres of the path with railway sleepers, which we had to carry from the office. I never knew the distance between the office and the path was so far… We managed to get all but 5 sleepers put in, so we will be back next week to finish the job.
Near the path we also planted some hazel trees, honeysuckle, blackberry bushes and some other shrubs. We sowed wildflower seeds along the old path to attract butterflies and bees. In a few months the area should be unregcognisable.
On Thursday we built a fence along the end of the old path to try to stop people walking along there, so the new plants will have a chance to grow. When they are established we will remove the fence.
We also said goodbye to Ronnie last week. He is doing a course for the next few months, but we hope to see him again if he has a day off.
