Pig arcs on the new hard core134 mol gekuckt ginnThe hard core has not yet been compacted. The clay (on the right of the photograph) has been "repaired" by the construction team, but it won't take long for the wild boar to add their own special touch.

The "repaired" clay at Maggot's Croft115 mol gekuckt ginnIn the second paddock. The construction of the hard core made quite a mess, but the construction team made quite an effort to smooth out the clay. It looks a bit like a lava flow in Hawaii.
