Stubbins Farm, Harkerside - 03 November 2011
Dick Laidler leads a task to refurbish a stile in a wall in Swaledale, with a little help from Clive and two park rangers hampering the proceedings. The job: replace two timber steps which had rotten and become slippery, to keep the 'Elf and Safety lot happy.

First step in place
Notice the ancient Roman technique of using a bottle as a spirit level (though the bottle should be on its side)
Clive to the rescue...
James weighs up the job with the others finish their chat
Job complete - very nice!
