In reply to UKH News: Fire regulations - in a bothy?!? Words fail me.

In reply to UKH News:
Leave well alone, its worked well for years.

In reply to Forcan Reg:
Yes -
1. For the safety of the bothiers
and
2. Remember what happened to Gleann-Dubh-Lighe last year, which will take many hours of volunteer time to rebuild.

In reply to Removed UserHippo100:
There is no such thing as "leave well alone"
All bothies require maintainance. The amount of work can quickly spiral out of control. Lack of maintainance means a lot more work to be done in the future.
Work has already been done at Shenavall - a new staircase, and cladding in the upstairs room as well as routine maintainance of the roof. More needs to be done or the bothy will go downhill.
We are short of volunteers for this year's workparty. Please see MBA website for details of how you can help.
