Yordas Pot fencing and wall repair

CNCC

Well-known member
Some excellent work by volunteers from the Craven Pothole Club (many of who are also regular CNCC Conservation Volunteers), with CNCC funding and landowner assistance, to repair the rotten and damaged fencing around the top entrance of Yordas Pot, and to repair walling around the tree plantation.

This was a two-day effort from a 16-strong team! :clap:

As well as helping to make the top entrance stock-proof, this has re-opened the entrance after a treefall, and helps to build good relations with Braida Garth Farm.
