After four days hard work ( all the materials and tools had to be carried on to site down a muddy path ) today is definitely a well earned rest day.

We are already planning phase two , the replanting of the northern boarder of the site , which should be another mammoth task , 100 odd trees and shrubs again all having to be man handled onto the site.
