A person in outdoor work clothes, including a beanie, gloves, and knee pads, waters a prepared planting plot with a red watering can. The soil is divided into string‑marked sections with red and white markers. Behind the plot are grassy fields, leafless trees, and electricity pylons under a bright blue sky with scattered clouds.
A person wearing gloves works in a sectioned planting plot beside a canal. The soil is divided with string tied to wooden stakes, and small seedlings are visible in the marked squares. Red and white flags mark specific points in the plot. A dirt path, a green shed, and a large black signboard sit in the background.
Tan and Richard planted more snowdrops at Darnford Moors Ecology Park earlier in the week. 🌿
Can't wait to see the display next year.

Three volunteers in high‑visibility vests walk along a gravel path beside a canal, each pushing a wheelbarrow filled with wood chips. To the left is a small orchard area with young trees in protective sleeves, and to the right is a grassy field with football goals. A large leafless tree and distant buildings sit under an overcast sky.
Two volunteers in high‑visibility vests work on a grassy area covered with fallen leaves. One person crouches to plant bulbs, while the other stands nearby pointing towards something out of frame. A pale blue/green wooden bench and a moss‑covered old lock structure with a wooden gate sit behind them, with bare trees surrounding the scene.
A volunteer wearing a bright yellow vest marked “LHCRT VOLUNTEER” stands on a dirt path, scattering seeds across a soil area with scattered young plants. A small green shed, a black signboard, and a tall electricity pylon rise in the background under a cloudy sky, with a trowel lying on the ground near their foot.
Two volunteers in high‑visibility vests work in an overgrown grassy area, cutting back vegetation. One person uses long‑handled loppers while the other stands nearby, with another pair of shears lying on the ground. A wide green field, scattered trees, and a tall electricity pylon stretch into the distance under a cloudy sky.
On Saturday 6 Green and Grounds, and 16 DofE volunteers laid more bark chip paths, finished the first part of the wildflower meadow, planted snowdrops, daffodils, poppy seeds, repaired the site shed roof, fixed fencing and cleared brambles.
Hard graft at Darnford Moors 👏

A construction site where three workers in orange high‑visibility jackets and yellow hard hats are excavating a deep trench. One worker operates an orange Develon excavator with a piling attachment, while another uses a measuring staff and a third works with a tripod‑mounted surveying instrument. Corrugated metal sheets line the trench for support. Bright yellow daffodils bloom along the top edge of the excavation, contrasting with the industrial scene.
A fenced‑off construction area sits beside a pedestrian path lined with brick flower beds and wooden benches. Workers in orange safety gear and machinery are visible behind the fencing, with red‑brick houses in the background. On the opposite side of the path, raised beds are filled with blooming yellow daffodils and pale purple flowers, creating a calm garden space next to the active building works.
Love the contrast between the mud of the building site and the daffodils. 🌿
We’ll check back on the ones in the piling area once the work is finished.

Five construction volunteers in high‑visibility gear stand on and around a large horizontal concrete pipe at a muddy worksite. A black corrugated pipe is supported above it on concrete blocks. Tools and wooden planks lie on top of the pipe. Behind them, a brick bridge features a painted boat mural, and a sign on the wall reads “Herkenrode Stained Glass Lichfield Cathedral Fragile.”
A muddy construction site with several volunteers in high‑visibility clothing installing or inspecting large pipes. Two black corrugated pipes are raised on concrete blocks, with an older concrete pipe running below them in water. A small excavator, fencing, and a brick wall border the site, with houses and trees visible in the background.
A construction volunteer wearing a high‑visibility vest and hard hat lays concrete blocks on a partially built wall. Tools, mortar, and stacked blocks surround the worker. A large black corrugated pipe and a brick retaining wall sit behind them, with a colourful narrowboat mural painted on the underside of a nearby bridge.
Four construction volunteers in high‑visibility clothing stand in a muddy excavation where large drainage pipes are being installed. One in an orange jacket leans on a wide concrete pipe, while another in a blue helmet adjusts a black corrugated pipe above it. Wooden supports, a digger bucket, and scattered tools surround the pipes. A brick bridge is visible in the background.
Big progress this week at Gallows Wharf/Reach, helped along by some spring-like weather!
Our volunteers have installed most of the 450mm diversion pipe, and the tank wall is really starting to take shape.

A muddy canal construction site with a partially built brick wall covered in black protective sheeting. Scaffolding stands in front of the wall, and the ground is churned up with deep tyre tracks. Large concrete pipes and scattered construction materials sit to one side, with exposed soil and roots visible behind the wall.
A section of canal under restoration, with water in the bottom of the channel and brick retaining walls on both sides. Scaffolding and a wooden platform extend over the water on the left. On the right, piles of bricks, blocks, tools, and plastic sheeting line the towpath edge. A wheelbarrow and a large concrete pipe sit in the foreground, with safety fencing enclosing the work area.
Another busy day on site at Tamworth Road Narrows — towpath coming along nicely, some fancy brickwork hidden away and mud doing what mud does best.

Our friend Paul Lumsden has shared a brilliant new vlog (if you joined us at Huddlesford Heritage Gathering, you might remember his incredible singing).
In this vlog there's an overview of the Huddlesford end plus a look at some of our current work.

Three people in high‑visibility vests work together outdoors, shovelling and moving a large pile of wood chips. One person uses a shovel, another holds a wheelbarrow, and a third stands on the pile. Parked cars and buildings are visible in the background.
A volunteer in a high‑visibility vest pushes a wheelbarrow full of wood chips along a woodland path. The path is being covered with wood chips, and leafless trees line the scene.
A volunteer wearing a high‑visibility vest uses a rake to spread wood chips along a woodland path. The surrounding area has leafless trees, fallen branches, and patches of green grass.
Saturday at Darnford Moors Ecology Park was a brilliant team effort!
We had 13 fantastic DofE volunteers and 5 members of our Green and Grounds team who absolutely got stuck in.
Together they:

It’s never our favourite job. In fact… we genuinely hate it. But sometimes, sadly, there’s no alternative.
Tree work is currently taking place along Tamworth Road, and we know people will have questions. So here’s Leon to talk you through exactly what’s happening and why.

Are you confused about what will happen with the Big Pipe at Gallows Reach?
Fear not, here’s the first part of an explanation from Narrowboat Nige, breaking down exactly what’s going on and why. The next two parts are over on his YouTube channel if you want the full story.

A muddy canal channel containing a large concrete drainage pipe, with a small excavator positioned beside it. A brick wall is being built along the left side, and construction materials such as bricks and a cement bag are scattered around. Water pools at the bottom of the channel.
Two construction volunteers in high‑visibility clothing stand in a muddy work area. One worker in a blue helmet positions a large black plastic pipe into a circular opening in a concrete wall. Another worker in an orange suit stands nearby. Tools, hoses, and piles of soil surround the site.
A construction area beneath a brick bridge, with a large concrete pipe running through a muddy, partially excavated trench. Bricks, tools, and two large metal pipe fittings lie nearby. A stairway with orange safety netting rises to the road above.
Huge progress at Gallows Wharf/Reach this week from both volunteers and contractors! 💪
- Shelf wall completed, extending the wharf foundation
- Tank wall for the diversion pipe now underway

A shallow canal runs through a wooded area with bare trees on both banks. The water reflects the sky and branches. A small green bridge crosses the stream in the background, adding a human-made element to the natural scene.
A muddy canal winds through a wooded area. Leafless trees stand on the left beside a structure partly covered with a striped tarp. The ground is a mix of green grass and fallen leaves, and a small brick wharf curves in the background.
A calm canal runs between two banks. The left bank has a fence and glimpses of nearby houses behind leafless trees, while the right bank is higher and covered in dense ivy and vegetation. The water reflects the blue sky and branches.
Spring at Summerhill 🌿
Ok, so it shouldn't have any water in it yet, but it does give an idea of how it will look when it's finished.
We're not due to work here again just yet, but we'll be back.

Two canal restoration volunteers stand in a brick-lined canal channel. One, wearing an orange safety suit and helmet, smiles and points toward the other. The second volunteer, in a yellow reflective vest and orange gloves, stands below with arms raised. Additional workers are visible further along the canal under a bright blue sky.
Caption this moment of Narrowboat Nige and Tony being absolute stars on site.
