A dismal wet and windy start to the New Year and Storm Eleanor was on it's way! Only a small team turned up this time to Stanton Meend which was not surprising.

They spent the day removing small birch using the tree poppers to dig the roots out. The image below demonstrates the expanse of bracken growing over the area.
