We had a conservation session on Saturday 29 November at Quarr Lane and had a good tidy up. Pictures attached. One picture taken in February 2010 before we started on the conservation programme and a second picture taken on Saturday shows progress made.
A conservation session took place at Portesham Farm in October following the siting of the new information boards in September and the quarry face and lime kiln are now in good condition.
Some team members from the DIGs group carried out successful conservation at Red Lane Abbotsbury on Thursday (18.9.14) and Saturday (20.9.14).
The rock face was difficult to access because of nettles which have now been cleared. The rock face was also somewhat obscured by ivy and convolvulus which have also been cleared. This is an interesting site and a group of Canadian geologists are planning to visit in early October. Further information is available on the Red Lane Abbotsbury site page.
