| 22nd February | Bray Pit |
| We are definitely working at Bray Pit today. The current plan is to plant wildflowers and sow wildflower seeds in the meadow. However, on the 18th the route to the site down the footpath from the A308 was seriously flooded so we must all park in the car park by Bray Lake Watersports here and walk the half mile to Bray Pit using the path beside the sailing lake. To reach Bray Lake Watersports turn off the A308 Windsor Road down Monkey Island Lane and then take the left hand fork.
