Week Commencing 16th September 2024
Each day saw 2 and a half volunteers attend which means one of us leaves at midday for various reasons .
But while we are at the station we try our best to keep the place respectable.
Monday
Ian and myself headed down to the bottom of the drive to give it a bit of a tidy up.
Whilst Chris took to removing the Ivy of the trees.
The Bottom area, after we gave it a good going over.
Lots of needles and debris around after the session , so Ian got the Billy out and did the pavement and Platform 1 too.
Wednesday
Over on platform 2 some Plinth headers have been put on the north end and back of the building plus at the far end a door frame has been temperately erected.
Some attention was needed to some of the wheelbarrows !
A job that's seams to grow every time we are down the drive is the appearance of the old station through the soil ! Last time I was picking up cones and debris I counted at least 7 potential bricks and concrete problems. Bob was seen attacking the first !
First barrow load was sent over the other side of platform 2 to be used as infill around the new building.
The biggest lump was a slab of reenforced concrete which took more than a few blows with the sledgehammer by Ian to reduce it to rubble.
It was my turn for a half day so I don't know what accrued in the afternoon but hopefully more anti mower blocks got removed !
