jesus was that the top section? will the hill be treeless afterwards? wouldnt be quite as weatherproof anymore but would also be a pretty damn cool spot if it was completely open!

We went up today and cleared some loamy lines in the woods next to that top open bit.

Need to wait until the frost is gone before you can build anything on the open bit though, the ground is far too hard.

I'm not going to unnecessarily bang my head against a brick wall when we just move over into the woods about 20 yards away and build a mint section in half an hour... Roll Eyes Just wait a couple of days till the frost is gone and you'll get more done with less effort? In Rogate's case, pretty much zero effort because it's the beach.

And I think this is whats going to be major issue now they've felled al the tree's, I can just see that with any sort of heavy rainfall its just going to wash everything away......
