Pete’s work was examined by Shaun Wilkes the Building Surveyor for National Trust Midlands and he received approval to work on the boundary wall at the back of the Park Seat at Croome.
Middle Littleton Tithe Barn
In early 2013, the church warden at St Nicholas Church, our neighbour at the tithe barn at Middle Littleton contacted the National Trust advising that the wall between the church and the orchard adjacent to the Tithe Barn was in a bad state of repair and the council refuse collectors were using the orchard and the churchyard as a thoroughfare. The wall is jointly owned by the church and the National Trust but the church didn’t have the resources to make the repair and asked if the National Trust could help.
Pete went to assess what needed doing and finding the wall was overgrown with brambles and damaged by trees Pete arranged for the garden and park volunteers to clear away the undergrowth together with Hugh Warwick our Area Ranger and Justin Fozard our Gardener who removed the trees.
