29/06/2024 9.00 - 13.30  Blashford North. + access to. Routine trimming of brambles and nettles as usual. All paths OK except for bracken that still needs cutting on the South side; on the verges from entrance to Rockford Lake along path between Dockens Water and Rockford Lake to the kissing gate leading to Moyles Court and continuing until reaching the left turn onto the footbridge over the Dockens Water to go out to the road and north. All hides seem OK. 5 ponies seen - happily grazing. Early warning: it will not be long before the reeds alongside the boardwalk need trimming.
