FInally Finished at Thrope

A greater than anticipated number of wallers turned up to finish off the taster day wall at Heathfield so two of us decamped to the wall at Thrope above Lofthouse.

Two Dicks, Richard P. and Richard H. spent a gloomy morning and afternoon gathering extra stone and placing it in the relevant positions upon the almost complete wall. The final topper was placed at about 2.30 and Richard P. did a commando roll from the top of the wall in celebration of the event. We then hot footed it back to Heathfield to see the progress there.
