The Conservation Volunteers (TCV) have started the first section of work
under the P4C project at Penrose today. The volunteers were knee deep
in mud at Carminowe Creek pulling out the old boardwalk which was badly
damanged during the flooding last winter. They managed to get it all out
today so next week work will start on installing a brand new one.
As the path is closed whilst the work is going on, there
is a diversion in place across the wet meadow behind the creek. It is
very wet and muddy all round Carminowe Creek at the moment so make sure you wear your
wellies!
The National Trust is currently working on
the Paths for Communities project across Penrose to improve access
opportunities and enjoyment for everyone.
The P4C Project is funded by Natural England and was created to enhance
the public rights of way network and to deliver benefits to rural areas. Work began in October and will be complete by
March 2014. With thanks to DEFRA and Natural
England. This project is funded through the RDPE programme.
