Felling has begun here and on neighbouring forestry plantations for the Clyde windfarm - 152 turbines on either side of the A74(M) between Beattock and Abington. Scottish landscape artist Lizzie Rose is making a record of the changes during a year-long residency and her work will be posted here as the project progresses.  Welcome, too, to our first two WWOOFers (Willing Workers on Organic Farms), Jess and Kris. There has been some snow damage to our buildings: the shed roof caved in under the weight, some roans are buckled and the Aga chimney broke off the barn roof. Repairs are now in hand, and welcome signs of spring - snowdrops and daffodils - are appearing at long last. |
