Keep Fit!

One of the dampest weeks for a long time, although not torrential, and we were able to do a full stint.  Even though Chris and Val had to opt out, there were still six of us Barry, Rob, Rod, Duncan, Andy and Graham.

Barry and Rod set about the cheek end at the start of the wall, Richard (Kendall) having put in a couple of gate posts. As was to be expected, the job required working back along the wall to find something reasonably intact but the end result looks very good, helped by the size of stone available.  The rest of us worked on and completed  the final section of wall (at least as far as we had decided to go) except for toppers. Next week should be our final week on site with 20 metres of toppers to find and the second cheek end to complete.

Late morning was notable for a visit from Graham's "Keep Fit" friends who had made a special detour from their Dacre Banks, Glasshouses, Brimrocks Rocks walk to see the wall. It is believed they thought it was a good wall with nice waves in it!
