On 18-Feb-2009 a Working Party continued work started in October 2008 on the Kenilworth Golf Course to A46 section of ACW by installing one more new kissing gate. The k/g replaced the stile in the middle of the stretch of path running parallel to the A46. This will be welcomed by all, having been a high and wobbly stile for as long as most of us can remember, and recently being reported as about to collapse! We also re-built the fence, installed two seats and cleared all the sticks and leaves from the steps up to the roundabout. |
|
We had planned to also replace the stile at the bottom of the steps. However on arrival, we found a team of surveyors measuring up, making test drillings and carrying out ecological surveys (etc.) in preparation for a major enhancement project to the junction. The stile will probably vanish and the path be realigned, so we left the stile as it is - it is in reasonable condition, and will last until a firm plan is announced. For overview of scope of full scheme see WCC news release "Access road planned to Stoneleigh Park". [NB - this link has now been removed from WCC website, and I have been unable to find a newer link. Webmaster 23-Jul-2009] Detailed plans should emerge over the next few months.
It spite of that setback, it was another satisfying day, and with a team of 11 available we were finished by 12:30.
