Bird boxes installed

We have put 8 swallow boxes on the Grainstore and one owl box. Swallow boxes are 8 meters high to allow them plenty of room to swoop. We will keep an eye out for any new residents.

Footpath and permissive signs

We have has difficulties with people trespassing.
To avoid future difficulties we have had signs made up to show where the footpaths and permissive paths are.
We hope the education of clear maps and rules helps people to keep to the paths. We have had these made from plastic to avoid metal theft.

New permissive path

We are putting in a bridge over the ditch for the new permissive path to cross in dry drayton.
