A good number of volunteers attended and their tasks were to litter pick over the whole area, to remove scrub and brambles beneath one of three three rare Wild Service trees, and to cut back the edges of paths and over hanging brambles. . The sides of the paths were brush cut and overhanging brambles cut back with loppers and shears and cuttings made into habitat piles nearby. Shrubs and branches removed from around and underneath the Service tree were laid as a fence alongside the path. One of the Hawthorn glades was extended by cutting down a small number of Hawthorn trees to a height of 4 feet to allow them to bush and avoid being eaten by Muntjac. Some woodchip that was delivered towards the end of the morning and was barrowed to the steps to improve the tread height and safety.
