More path clearing on the High Weald Landscape trail west of Cuckfield

The path west of Cuckfield was getting very overgrown in places.  It was a hot and humid day yesterday and the scythe that I borrowed was old and worn and fell apart after a few minutes.  A hand sickle was then used to clear the this section.

You can now walk line abreast and not get soaked by wet bracken when it rains.

Our public footpath network would be more pleasurable if more people cleared even short sections like the above near their homes.  Reduced funding for local councils means that we need to do more ourselves to avoid tax hikes and to enjoy our paths.
