Section Logo2023 Location - Poltimore sign

Location image

Small village name sign located on the Broadclyst road. Due to the narrow verge and car parking we are limited in what can be carried out but would like to :

  • Tidy base of sign.
  • Trim adjacent bank back to improve visibility .
  • Remove old tyre (re-purpose in wildlife triangle) .
  • Construct a raised timber/log planter with seasonal bedding under the sign.
  • Bulbs planted around verge.

After much digging and sweating the old tyre was extracted and moved to the wild life area.

The disturbed was soil left level and tidy ready for the construction of a small raised planter.

The lower part of the adjacent wall was cleared of overgrown vegetation which we will now allow to grow back in a controlled fashion to benefit wildlife and native plants.

Again the big smiles from the team on finishing says it all.
