        A lot of ground elder to remove

 

 

 

 

   Not too much room to manoeuvre

     The wind was in the right direction

February 2013 - repairs to the bank

 

 

The final earth works to shore up the back boundary of the Jubilee Orchard have been completed. The Parish Council would like to thank Dorset Area of Outstanding Beauty for their support and the grant that has enabled us to carry out this essential work. We would also like to thank Bob Moggeridge and his team who carried out the work. We intend to plant cowslips and primroses on the bank before it is seeded. We would also like to thank those living nearby for their forbearance during the two days it took to complete the works.
