Volunteers met at Sugar Fen , where Neville said that there were two tasks for the morning. One was to improve crossing a drain for walkers, and the other to cut down young Gorse and Birch saplings on the heath. Neville, Chris, Tom and Nikki armed with a barrow of planks and chicken wire walked to where they covered stepping logs, through some wet ground, with chicken wire, to improve the footing. Then they repaired a bridge across one of the drains leading to the Gaywood River, and covered it in chicken wire for grip. On the heath the volunteers spread out and either lopped or sawed off the Gorse and Silver Birch saplings.. Jenny identified a number of fungi, most of which were growing on dung from the cattle and ponies on the heath.
