Over the month of September a lot of Work was Completed on the Campsite. As you can see from the Photos the grass is now growing on the camping Area. After the contractor clearing the trees completed his work we firstly gathered as much Gadget Timber that we could from it and stored it on the site for further use.
Then the Hymacs and Heavy earth moving Equipment moveed in. They up rooted all the stumps of the trees over 350 of them and took them to the lowest point on the perimeter. They then proceeded to strip off the topsoil and stored this at one end of the site. The job then was to level the site. This was done by splitting the site in 2 and excavating down the top of the site to a centre level and pushing this excavated soil down to the lower level thus giving us a level Site.

Last Thursday evening the 23rd August saw work start on our new Campsite at Dun A Ri. The contractor who is felling the trees started work clearing our site of all the trees.
Within one week having visited the site on Thursday night last 30th Aug all but 12 or
14 trees where gone. The difference in the site is brilliant and you can now see the extent of the site. It's a great space with loads of room for everything we want.
