An activity with Biodiversity Action Team (South London)

Activity date: Thursday 24th April 2025

Start time: 10:00
Finish time: 16:00

Activity description

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.

Meeting place

Meet on site from 10.00am.
