Minor typo in there, unless Battlefield run a part of the operation I’d not come across!

We have a lot of saplings and overgrown hedges to deal with. Anything done now lessens next Winter's work.

The Lynton & Barnstaple Railway is to cease public services. Today (Thursday 19th March), is the last day of operations for the foreseeable future.

 

Please check the information in the list on the first post before posting on here. I'ts taken two hours just for this mornings updates, duplicates don't help but thank you anyway.

Noted. There's some legal stuff, plus a recommendation from RSPB not to cut hedge until August https://www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and-w.../plants-for-wildlife/garden-hedges/hedge-law/. I'm sure your veg clearers know what's what

Cheers

We of course wouldn't cut any tree , hedge or bush containing a nest, but we are allowed to cut for sighting purposes.

And presumably for clearance especially following the sad incident at Twerton

It is probably easier to put a list of what is opening/running. That is probably already a very short list that is only going to get shorter.

 

Well if you'd like to take over... Feel free But they'd all have to be listed again as they announce their various re-opening dates...

A note for all:- Some of the Facebook links don't work as their posts are updated and the page references change. If they don't work just look at their main Facebook page then check the posts.

I was thinking that will end up as another topic when it happens and I was best leaving it to you as the expert however when it is deemed Ok to open and that punters will turn up it will be virtually simultaneously as railways will be so desperate for any sort of income by then The depressing thing is that is probably many months away and with no cash from peak season some may struggle to reopen.

 

Cancel you ferry/plane tickets IOM now in lockdown. Services suspended UFN
