Fire pit

In 2015, our ambitious project was to create a fire pit in the woodland glade for the use of the  group and for public events. It all began in the spring with the fixed deadline of 31st October when there was to be a halloween event in the woodland.
Meticulous planning was required to meet good old health and safety regulations and fit it into the monthly work parties.

First the marking out and the digging of the footings.

That was a wet one!

Another month saw the concrete added and yet another one spent cutting the bricks to fit the circle exactly. This brought us to September and a whole day work party. A local builder lent us his expertise with the bricklaying and all hands were on deck for labouring and refreshments!

This is kind of the beginning, middle and end! 

And this was it all lit up for Halloween and ready for toasting marshmallows
