Westbury Sub Mendip

Easton - Westbury Line Greenway Volunteer Maintenance Session - Cheddar Valley Branch
2024-06-16 10:00 - 13:00 UTC | Erlon Lane
Easton – Westbury Sunday, 16th June. 10 am to 1pm.

There will be a Strawberry Line working party between Westbury sub Mendip and Easton starting at Furlong Farm Crossing 10am – 1pm led by Mick F.
Details to follow.
The start point may vary between Station Rd WSM, Erlon Lane and Ebbor Lane.
We very much appreciate your support and everyone is welcome, no special talents required. Please join us, with gloves if you have a pair.
Now we’ve built the line we need your support to maintain this fantastic community facility, as well as help improve biodiversity.
Further dates for your diary are on local social media and printed on the gate at Priddy Veal Lane, Easton. But if you’ve missed them, they’re:
Friday 28th June. Westbury Sub Mendip-Easton Section
Sunday 14th July. Westbury Sub Mendip-Easton Section
Friday 26th July. Westbury Sub Mendip-Easton Section
Sunday 11th August. Westbury Sub Mendip-Easton Section
TBC May ​ Axbridge-Cheddar Section
Tuesdays May ​ Axbridge-Cheddar Section
TBC​​​ Rodney Stoke-Draycott Section
We had thought that we might need fewer work parties over the summer but there still seems work to be done. What seemed like an easy job, taking the old tree guards off the hedging that is now entering its third summer, proved a slower task than envisaged so there is at least another days work there. Although we expect Goldings to do most of the work moving stone from the field & placing over the new pipe there will probably be a lot of tidying up to do.
If you’d like to help but can’t make specific dates have a word with Mick F & we can work out a task you can do on your own.
Watch out for further details of additional volunteer sessions between Axbridge and the approaches to Wells, within the Cheddar Valley Branch’s area of responsibility.
Please contact Penny J, in Easton, David P in Cheddar or Mick F in Westbury for more information. Thank you.
