More a case of we’ve been busy in the woods as Good Gym made its regular trip to Westcombe woodlands, a glorious hidden green space behind Maze Hill station.

On arrival, we were directed to the oak grove where things had not gone as planned: bluebells had been planted but the ivy and brambles had had other ideas and had colonized the area. So the task was to get rid of the ground cover in the hope that the bluebells might flourish in future years. The task was not made easier but the uneven grounds and the presence of many chopped logs under which it was easy for the bramble roots to hide, but Good Gym are tenacious (especially Cat who put in a heroic shift) and we left the area cleared and ready for future planting.
