Meadow Mead revisited

It was forecast to be a very hot day so we met a little earlier at 9:00 at Meadow Mead. Fortunately it stayed cloudy which kept the temperature at a relatively comfortable level. A group of 7 volunteers turned at Meadow Mead which helped to cover a large area of the river between Parsonage and Church Road bridges.  Our main objective was to clear some large clumps in areas difficult to access because they were low down on the river bank and only accessible through dense undergrowth. However we managed to cut a way through and to scramble down the riverbank to clear them.

We also cleared more plants low down on the riverbank which were not immediately visible from the path and a few stragglers in areas we’d previously cleared.
