Drains and Gulley Clearing - Why you may ask!



It may not seem important to most but without the work undertaken by the NT Rangers and volunteers more damage as shown would take place trashing the fellsides and paths. All the soil and rocks could as in this case end up in the lakes and block paths. If you look closely you may see NT volunteer David part way down the wash out showing how large it is. This was caused by one nights rainfall on the slopes of Burntness Woods Buttermere.

NT Volunteer Phil can be seen digging out a blocked side drain in the rain near to the wash out.
