We're back at the great wall of Borrowash!

With temperatures set at 20°C and over for the week and lots of sunshine forecast for Derby, the river Derwent is a great place to head to! Relaxing, tranquil, beautiful with lots of wildlife to see.

The roof is finally on the lean to container, with thanks to our volunteers and @southernsheeting supplies for the donation of the roofing sheets

A great day at Breaston gala yesterday with lots of interest in our projects
