Geoconservation Day – Sunday 2 February 2014
Springvale Park, Wolverhampton.
Since our previous visit there had been little regrowth of vegetation. The day was spent continuing to form a level platform adjacent to the exposure of Coal Measures strata at the top of the slope, and clearing the slope of any new vegetation. The view of the slope and exposure from the park was improved with the removal of some branches and saplings. These provided good material for constructing a temporary safety barrier along the platform edge at the top of the slope.
