WARNING: This Could Improve Your Health!

Saddlebags and Secateurs!
For those who love the outdoors for more than walking, there is a regular trail maintenance programme to help the upkeep of the Clay Trails . We trim and cut back vegetation and make minor repairs to trail surfaces and boundaries that we all use!

For more information, please contact Sharon Potter on 01726 627903
