Use of the steps down from the main path opposite the Hall to the Snowdrop Trail has long been difficult because of the very muddy conditions at the bottom – especially in the winter.
Friends’ volunteers have recently constructed a sturdy timber framework and then secured it firmly in the ground at the foot of the steps. Council staff then filled it with stone aggregate to make an all-weather platform/landing to allow pedestrians to avoid the deep mud – just in time for this year’s Snowdrop Trail display.
