HARDCASTLE CRAGS


The Great Scrape:- Day 3

Ken, Gerald and Nigel together with about 6 National Trust volunteers. A much drier and more pleasant day for working.


Final part of path leading up to the old railway-before clearance


Path leading up to the old railway-after clearance


On the old railway trackbed-work taking place in the distance-or are they just talking about it? This first part was not too bad.


Further along the mulch was up to 5 inches thick


We scraped approximately one-third of the width of the old railway trackbed to make a reasonable width of path to walk on
