Blithfield hide reroofing update

I have spoken to Oli Douthwaite on Monday and Wednesday this week about the progress being made on reroofing the Forward and Stansley Wood hides. SSW staff were at the hides on Tuesday finalising the right platform size, and Oli confirmed he is now waiting for delivery to allow the work to start, which hopefully will be in the next few days, as always any questions please let me know and I’ll update with progress as it’s made with best regards Mark

Hi,


I've had 3 visits now and managed to see an osprey near the dam. I also spotted this attached photograph which I think is an osprey dining table?

Hide reroofing update

I have just spoken to the Blithfield Estates manager and he has advised that the SSW groups RAMS body who sign off / approve work on the sites have seen the planning to complete the reroofing of the Forward and Stansley Wood hides. The work is now planned for w/b 11th of May. As I’ve commented before no one is more frustrated than me at the inconvenience to members but we now have light at the end of the tunnel (and not just through the roof 😊). If anyone has any questions please feel free to call. With best regards Mark
