Description

A number of sites which had previously been identified during an assessment were marked out on the ground in order to protect them during construction works. This was one of the conditions of planning permission for the new hydro scheme. The sites were marked by wooden deer fence posts and blue rope, calculated to last for the whole of the construction period. <1>
