Nidd lane, Birstwith - Wednesday 16th July 2014

A goodly number of wallers turned out to wall on a fair to middling day, which got really rather breezy towards the close of play.

Chris and Graham continued Tony's downhill stretch of wall but were as puzzled as Tony by the correct solution to the problem of a large tree which meets with the wall in a mutually exclusive spatial quandary... ... They left the resolution to the problem for next weeks saps workers.

Richard H. and Rod continued and completed the western part of the wall directly to the east of the gate. They then went on to hinder help Chris and Graham.

This left Richard P. , Barry, Paul and Roger to get on with the main section of the wall unimpeded. They put on a good show of it but didn't manage to finish things off. So it's back to Birstwith for a final stint next Wednesday.
