About this Event
Join the team of volunteers who meet each month to support the Sutton Park Rangers in preserving and recording the archaeology of the park. This month we will be working near Keepers Pool, repairing and reinforcing the rhododendron dead hedge that protects the 16th-century boundary bank of Holly Hurst, with material that we will cut from nearby as part of habitat management. There should also be an opportunity to do some surveying and walkover surveys, as time permits.
Please wear warm and weatherproof outdoor clothing and footwear, and bring a packed lunch. Tools and gloves and hot drinks will be provided.
Café and toilets available at beginning and end of session. Dogs are not prohibited but it is a long session in one spot so not recommended.
Meeting at 11am at the Visitors Centre, Sutton Park, B74 2YT. Nearest train station Sutton Coldfield (10min walk), Bus Sutton Coldfield (10min walk)
