Brunel's Other BridgeBrunel Swivel Bridge Project Photos April 2024
Was it the warm sun, warm welcome, free beverages or getting to grips with Brunel that brought out our volunteers in force? Whatever it was, we achieved a lot. Reece, Richard and Andy cleared graffiti, and gardened, whilst Nicki and John scoured the discoloured south side of BOB clean ready for painting in May, weather-permitting.Chris continued the tricky and tiring task of mechanically sanding the turntable ring under the deck, and repainting it. Geoff, Julian and Ian removed another old run of felt from the 'chicken shed' (protective roof) and fitted a replacement sheet. Getting these sheets properly aligned and glued down, and folding the corners neatly is not easy, but was achieved to a high standard, and we are halfway to completion now.
Charlie and Bob worked together surveying the many historic features around the Tongue to add to Bob's excellent drawings, and Charlie progressed his many projects, whilst also assisting Chris with his underground surveys using an amazing drain camera. Well done and thank you everyone, we are making a difference to the heritage of the Tongue,..... as well as enjoying ourselves.
