We have also worked closely with Cheshire East Council. We have consulted with the community through open days, interest group meetings and surveys and this Plan reflects the views of our community. A strong message emerging from the consultation process was that the local people are proud of the village character and community spirit and have a very strong desire to retain these attributes. This was key to developing the Plan Vision. The aims and policies of the community have all been derived from the Vision and are detailed in this Plan. This Plan is robust and when formally adopted will provide the necessary guidance for Wrenbury Parish until 2030. A full copy of the plan and other supporting documents are on the Wrenbury Parish website http://www.wrenburypc.org.uk/neighbourhood-plan/ All Neighbourhood Plans must: have appropriate regard to national planning policy; contribute to sustainable development; be in general conformity with strategic policies in the development plan for the local area; be compatible with EU obligations and human rights requirements. In addition to its value as a statutory document used in planning-decision making, a Neighbourhood Plan can also help the Parish Council decide priorities for the parish and give guidance when making decisions on behalf of the parish. David Craig Chair of the Wrenbury cum Frith Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group 4 2 The History, Location and Character of Wrenbury 2.1 History 2.2 The civil parish of Wrenbury-cum-Frith covers the village of Wrenbury and the small settlements of Gaunton's Bank, Pinsley Green, Porter's Hill, Smeaton Wood, Wrenbury Heath, Wrenbury Frith and Wrenburywood. Throughout the 19th century, the population of the parish remained between 400-500, expanded to around 700 in 1951, and in the 2011 Census, the parish had a recorded population of 1,181. 2.3 During Roman times, the road from Middlewich (Salinae) to Whitchurch (Mediolanum) appears to have passed close to the modern-day Wrenbury village, which was in the lands of the native Cornovii tribe. During preparatory work for the Church Farm development in 1995, some evidence was found of a late Roman period agricultural building 2.4 The first documented record of the village is in the Domesday Book, where it is listed as Wareneberie; this became Wrennebury in 1230. The name is said to mean "old forest inhabited by wrens". The Norman Baron landowners were the de Malbedeng (later de Malbank) family, based in Nantwich. In 1128, Hugh Malbank, 2nd Baron Wich Malbank, gave land at Combermere, close to Wrenbury village, for the founding of the first Cistercian abbey in England. This was erected around 1133 and was dedicated to St Mary and St Michael and, with a chapel attached to St Mary's Church, Acton, Wrenbury was included in the lands donated to the abbey in around 1180 by William, the 3rd Baron. 2.5 Following the Dissolution of the Monasteries by Henry VIII in 1536, only the Abbot’s Lodge remained and was presented to the Cotton family, who created a manor house incorporating the Lodge. Most notable of the Cotton family was Sir Stapleton Cotton, a brilliant general, who fought under Wellington at the Battles of Salamanca and Bhurtpore. One of the two pubs of Wrenbury village, ‘The Cotton Arms’, is named for him. 2.6 The centrepiece of Wrenbury village is the beautiful Grade II* listed St Margaret's Church, built of red sandstone, which overlooks the green. The present church dates from the early 16th century with alterations and additions in the 18th and 19th centuries, (more details are available at http://www.wrenburypc.org.uk/neighbourhood-plan/) In the church nave are memorials to the Cotton family of Combermere Abbey and the Starkey family of Wrenbury Hall, the most important being the monument to Sir Stapleton Cotton, 1st Viscount Combermere. The church organ was built by Charles Whiteley of Chester in 1884 and renovated by the same firm in 1984. There is a ring of six bells. The oldest bells date from 1610 and 1666. The parish registers begin in 1593 and the churchwardens' accounts in 1771. A free school by the church was endowed by Ralph Buckley in 1605. 2.7 Close to the church are two other Listed Buildings. Elm House is a Grade II, large 17th century two-storey half-timbered cottage with a slate roof and a prominent brick chimney, placed asymmetrically. Hawk House is a Grade II 18th century whitewashed brick cottage, the building was once an inn, called ‘The Hawk’, and later ‘The Hawk and Buckle’. In 1973, the area of the village of Wrenbury around the village green, and some way along Cholmondeley Road to either side of the green was designated as a Conservation Area. 2.8 In the late 18th century, the Llangollen Canal was built, passing through the north- western end of Wrenbury. It branches off from the Shropshire Union Canal just north of Nantwich, finishing at Llangollen. As it passes Wrenbury, it is notable for three bridges by Thomas Telford, dating to about 1790, which are Grade II listed buildings. Wrenbury Church Bridge

Councillors are concerned that residents would be liable for expensive maintenance which would require a higher local precept on an asset on which there would be no continuity of ownership. It would also be difficult to get grants towards costs on a relatively short lease. Additionally, there would be no reduction in council tax. Councillors recently met with representatives of Cheshire East Council to discuss their concerns. At the time of writing there is no definite news on whether the proposed change of policy has been adopted. Hedges It would be really appreciated if residents who have hedges or trees alongside pavements and paths could keep them trimmed.
