Thank you Bingley Town Council for the grant that allowed us to install new railings on some of our more challenging stepped areas. We now have railings at the top of the serpentine path, above the round house and from the broadwalk down to the cascade area. They feel as if they have always been there.

You may see work taking place near the pencil pines on the broadwalk. The stone bays behind the pines were found to be unstable so, with the aid of our friends the Otley and Yorkshire Dales Dry Stone Walling Association they are being renovated. The work will take several sessions so if you are interested pop along and have a chat on Wednesdays. Want to know more about the assoication? Just click below.
