Arley Hall and gardens






These images give you an idea of what it is like in the gardens, the top image is Cruck barn - maybe now you can see why I had such a debate about cutting at home or there!

Another work in progress


The black you can see on this piece is fungus, my husband thinks it smells of rotten fruit. Gave me a big scare when I saw how much it grew overnight but then i spoke to Dr David Rose (an expert I found via the Forestry Commission) and he reassures me it will go away as the wood dries out.
Not sure if either of these works in progress will make it to the gardens.

Work in progress

Here I am in 2006

Since this picture was taken I have done a CS30 (chainsaw cross cutting and maintenance course) and just want you all to know that it is all safe and I am very careful and have full chainsaw protection!
