Replacement Walkways and Stiles on Beat 3
Over the past few
weeks the whole Committee have been working on Walkways to replace
the ones that were removed from Beat 3 last year. The walkways were
re-installed on the 22nd of June.
A very fine stile
has been installed at the boundary ditch between Breen's and
Buckley's. These improvements add greatly to the accessibility of
the lower sections of the Beat.
