Unstacking and moving the old railway sleepers which the old wooden hut used to rest on will allow a patch of land to be made ready for planting next year.

There are 28 sleepers which need 2-3 people to lift and carry.

How fast can 6 GoodGym folk shift the sleepers?

If we are quick we can roll the area ready for wood chip.

How are you getting there?
