| Goldfish Bowl |
Since Monday of last week, Ady, Graham and Callum have, weather permitting, been clearing out a very old leaf pit which is full of lovely dark brown, crumbly leafmould. Having spent years rotting down, the leaves are now ready to be spread on the college borders as a mulch. Starting by the Casson Building, also known as The Goldfish Bowl, they have worked their way round the borders that surround the Nuffield Lawn finishing in the centre of the lawn mulching amongst the snowdrops.

Hi Mark and Gaz, thank you for your comment. The weather has been wet with the occassional dry spell. The mulching took longer than usual, very wet around leaf pit so unable to access the leaf mould with the large tractor and the grab attachment, each trailer had to be loaded manually, man power with shovels, a slow process, keeps us warm though. Water levels now dropping and grounds drying up. Regards Gardening Team
