Just in case you think the country side volunteers only go dry stone walling, we also undertake "most" other tasks asked of us. Some of the other duties we have performed this year are, hedgelaying, fencing, installing and repairing gates and stiles, maintaining the NT boats on Crummock, Buttermere and Loweswater, litter picking, path maintenance, drain and gulley clearing, heavy duty tasks in the gardens at Wordsworth House, brashing, slashing, cutting and burning, lonning repairs at Watergate Farm, footpath surveys after adverse weather looking for damage/landslips and staffing NT displays at public events. Quite varied really.
Check back soon for some further updates and a picture selection of the other tasks undertaken by us.
