We were going to put up the gate at the First Field entrance but found the hangers we got were just too big. Now off to B& Q to get a drill bit. It took nearly half an hour to get the bloody chain off. A rusted weak link looked as though it would break, if the chain was twisted round itself with a crowbar. In the end I had to file the link to split it.
