Cheddar Wood
If you're one of those people who likes the idea of a conservation event that
doesn't involve chopping stuff down then this may be just the thing for you: dry stone
walling. (This means building a wall using stones but no cement.) Pick-ups
from Union 9.15am, UH 9.30am, Arches 9.45am, back by 6pm as usual.

Leigh Woods
This is likely to involve chopping things down - e.g. coppicing, scrub
bashing, path clearance. Since it's just the other side of the suspension
bridge we'll be walking there and back. Meet at the Union 9.15am or the
Clifton end of the bridge at 9.30am.
