Last Tuesday, a group of volunteers were out and about in Stanborough, the Commons and Digswell, digging holes and installing new waymark posts in locations where the previous posts either didn’t exist or were too wobbly to be useful. The smart new posts were made from an oak tree that had fallen naturally in Sherrardspark Woods some time ago, so it felt right to be able to use locally produced timber for this task. With the help of tea and cake, the Sherrardspark Wood Wardens and Countryside Management Service volunteers made short work of installing 13 new posts and attaching Centenary Walk arrows and the task was complete by lunchtime.
