There is currently no water supply to the Downes hut. This means no tea, no showers, no flushing toilets, so best to avoid the hut for the time being. It is due to a burst major pipe under the main road, and is due to be repaired by Friday 2nd February. I’ll keep you updated with any progress.
If never rains…..!

Has it been repaired yet?

Hi Gail
Yes it is. Didn’t know I could post on the ‘News’ bit (!), but I posted the following on the forums and facebook on 7th Feb:
And the update is….
The water is back on. I flushed the pipes through and checked for leaks, all looks good so far. There may be some sediment still lurking around. If you are at the hut and find anything untoward, please do let me know.
cheers
