Stamford Bridge,YO41 1DL

03 Apr 2010

23:00

Today I was joined by Rob and Sue Hayward who volunteered to walk from Stamford Bridge up to High Catton, turn right to Low Catton and back to Stamford Bridge, collecting four very full bags of rubbish on route. I started down under the Viaduct and that's as far as I got. I've posted a couple of pictures showing the rubbish that must have accumulated over a number of years, (stopped counting tin cans after 70) and quickly realized I was in cloud cuckoo land if I thought I was going to finish collecting rubbish on the planned route! However, the weather was beautiful and I was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the kingfishers who were busy defending their territory prior to nesting. .

Forres Community Clean Up
I have set up this group as I have been cleaning the burn near the Mosset Tavern since early 2011. The river fills up with plastic, glass and an assortment of garbage on a regular occasion. I am barely making any in roads into keeping the river clean and so I thought it would be great to have other community member join in to help. Together we can make the river a great place for the enjoyment of the community. In 2016, we merged our group with Forres Community Clean Up, a local group that cleans the streets and public places in Forres. Joe Pirnie is the co-ordinator of this group
