Moles
​Moles have returned to our site after a period of time when we didn't see any. They seem to throw up their molehills mainly on plots near the railway line but may spread further They don’t eat plants of course but can damage the roots of plants. However on unused areas they actually help to turn the soil over – they are nature’s rotovators! Apparently molehills are supposed to make good compost!
Here is a link to an RHS webpage giving advice on how to get rid of moles. If they are a problem to you I would suggest you talk to one of the Committee members before doing anything as you may simply move them on
