Just a few more photographs of the field before and after the drainage work.  The images are not from exactly the same position, but should give an idea of the work carried out and the improvement.

Firstly, viewing the entire field, it is possible to see the extent of the wet area at the bottom of the hill.

(note also our lovely field of hay/haylage in the making)

The ground is now much drier; with more grass growth and fewer rushes.

Our turning area / car park is also completed.
