Woodland and Waterways 

The Woodland & Waterways project came about as a result of a community consultation that was carried out under the Market Towns Initiative Programme, which identified the need for more green areas within the community.

Our Open Spaces

The Parish Council manages some of the open spaces in the Parish, but there are other green spaces available also.

The recreation ground behind Aspall Road has basketball hoops, lots of green space for a game or two of rounders, football or even croquet!  There is also a selection of play equipment for children to use.

On The Meadows, there are several green spaces with play equipment for youngsters to use.

Dogs are not allowed on these areas.

The Parish Council provides dog bins within the Parish.  Are you a dog owner or walker?  Plan your dog walks knowing exactly where the nearest dog bin is.  We have a helpful map here of the locations of all the dog bins.
