Wheelock Rail Trail and Salt Line Both the Salt Line and the Wheelock Rail Trail Follow the Old Railway Line Between Kidsgrove and Elworth Wheelock Rail Trail and Salt Line Both the Salt Line and the Wheelock Rail Trail follow the old railway line between Kidsgrove and Elworth. Grade Traffic free 2km/1.24miles (Wheelock) 3km/1.8miles (Salt Line) end Distance to end Time Approx. 1-2 hours Start Hassall Green car park Map OS Explorers 257 & 268 Terrain Flat and well-surfaced Barriers N/A Toilets None en route Contact Cheshire East Council Tel: 01477 534115 Route Details The Wheelock Rail Trail and Salt Line are both part of NCN Route 5 linking Middlewich with Alsager. The Wheelock Rail Trail is a 2km multi-user route from Ettiley Heath to Malkins Bank, which officially opened in September 2002. After the railway closed in 1966 the track lay derelict for many years, gradually becoming more and more overgrown. After February 2000 the then County Council worked closely with the local community through the Wheelock Rail Trail Association to develop the track into a multi-user trail. The whole route has now been upgraded with improved access points, better surfacing and new information boards to provide a high quality facility for cyclists. The Salt Line, further to the south-east, is a multi-user track running through farmland and woodlands, with streams, pools and rough grassland. Wild primroses brighten up the steep cutting at Roughwood Hollow while later in the year the delicate flowers of scabious and harebell can be seen on the banks. Directions Both the Wheelock Rail Trail and the Salt Line are flat, well surfaced linear trails. Parking is available at the Salt Line at Hassall Green (1). The two routes are linked by a 2km stretch of road between Malkin’s Bank (2) and Hassall Green (3). Cyclists should take care when crossing the A534 (4). If you want to explore the surrounding area and are confident cycling on roads, why not try Cycling the Salt Ride? .

  • Cheshire East Local Plan
    Cheshire East Local Plan First Draft Site Allocations and Development Policies Document August 2018 Foreword As many of you will know, the council adopted the Local Plan Strategy last year. It sets out our long-term vision for the borough, enabling investment in new homes and jobs to take place alongside protecting and enhancing our environment and helping everyone in the borough to enjoy the best quality of life possible. We know what our headline ambitions are, and this second part of the local plan will focus on more detailed policies and identify smaller development sites to meet our overall development targets. Amongst many other things, importantly, it will establish our approach towards further development in the 13 local service centres across the borough. Planning affects all of us; it touches many aspects of our lives – including where we live and work, and our general health and well-being. And whilst there will be no local plan that achieves universal support, it is vital that everyone is able to have their say and have those views taken into account in shaping its policies and proposals. The publication of this First Draft Site Allocations and Development Policies Document is your next key opportunity to influence the local planning policies that will be used to determine planning applications. I hope that you will respond to this opportunity and look forward to receiving your views. Cllr Ainsley Arnold Cabinet Member for Housing, Planning and Regeneration Foreword CHESHIRE EAST LOCAL PLAN First Draft Site Allocations and Development Policies Document i Consultation The local plan sets planning policies and allocates sites for development.

  • Emerging Policy Principles Document III
    Foreword The process of preparing a development plan is a complex one and can appear, at first sight, to simply be an update of existing Local Plans. Our Development Strategy is far more than that. It is a robust strategy to deliver positive, targeted and sustainable development to benefit all the people of Cheshire East. It will deliver 27,000 new houses, 20,000 new jobs, and the infrastructure needed for this to happen, and will continue to support Cheshire East’s position both as the economic powerhouse of the North West, and as a beautiful and prosperous place to live. We have a vision of genuine growth of jobs as part of a jobs-led development strategy, supported by improved connectivity through sustainable infrastructure, such as the Poynton Relief Road, Congleton Relief Road, dualling of the A500, and junction improvements to the M6. This is an ambitious plan which will protect the green and pleasant lands of Cheshire East through Green Belt swaps and Strategic Open Gaps, whilst delivering economic growth at one of the highest rates in UK PLC. It is underpinned by an innovative strategy for energy which focuses on sustainable alternatives to wind power, and by a real commitment to needs-based, community-led housing in order to provide lifelong housing to the people of Cheshire East. This is a sustainable, plan-led Development Strategy which sends a strong message to the developers besieging our towns, inviting them to work with us to strengthen our towns and deliver positive outcomes to the people of Cheshire East.

Joseph Warburton. There is an identification of Ralph Warburton's parents as Joseph and Mary Annie together with a further brother Joseph in the tree of Peter Wainwright at http://wainwrights.familytreeguide.com/tree_index.php. His source is the Akende familytree on Ancestry owned by Jessie Bennett. No corroboration for this has been found. However there is evidence that Ralph did have a brother Thomas, and this Thomas’s father was named Joseph on the parish record of his wedding. The evidence that Thomas is Ralph's brother is from the presence of Mary, Thomas's sister-in-law, living with Thomas in 1891.
