There is always clearance work at Netley Common for our Southern Sites friends.  Confirmed cutting down and burning of birch, willow, gorse regeneration in the central area.

Bring loppers, pruning saws, chain saws and brush cutter. Not much work for hedge trimmers. Trailer staying at home. Be prepared for patches of standing water in the work area. Fine weather overhead booked this week.

Drive down the track past the keepers cottage and in at the gate by the school fence. Park in the central grassy patch shown by the pin. Ground here is understandably damp but not boggy.

We cleared from the fire to the trees

Fire watching.
