Grass re-seeding postponed until May 2025

By Admin on 15 October 202427 October 2024

Due to unforeseen circumstances, w’ve had to postpone the grass reseeding scheduled for this autumn. Instead we intend to undertake the work in May 2025. Calton Hill is heavily eroded as a result of 15 years neglect, but it can be reversed — as we’ve demonstrated in test areas this year — and it will be reversed.

We are grateful to our funder the Edinburgh University Micro Grants Team for agreeing to hold over this project.
