    Crane Park (Fullwell Park & Mill Road meadows) - Spring hay cut and rake

    With Richmond Weekday Projects

    At Crane Park (Mill Road Entrance)

    Activity description

    We will be working in collaboration with the horses from Oakwood Clydesdales to cut and rake the meadows in Crane Park. We will be starting the day in the Fullwell Park meadow, before moving on to the Mill Road meadow down the river. The meadows are managed for biodiversity by LBRuT. The hay cut and rake is an important step in meadow management as it helps to maintain low soil fertility, suppresses vigorous grass growth, and helps spread wildflowers.

    It's been quite a few years since we last worked in Burgess Park, but now we have been asked to help improve the access through the Albany Road Woodland section of the park, between the ponds and the Albany Rd perimeter. We will be installing timber edging and filling the paths with hardwood chip for greater longevity than standard mulch, and installing small 800mm width oak sleeper steps on the inclines through the woods.
