December 2009 Introduction I am pleased to introduce our summary of the River Douglas Catchment Flood Management Plan (CFMP). This CFMP gives an overview of the flood risk in the River Douglas catchment and sets out our preferred plan for sustainable flood risk management over the next 50 to 100 years. The River Douglas CFMP is one of 77 CFMPs for England surge or from backing up of river water due to high and Wales. Through the CFMPs, we have assessed tides. Serious flooding has been recorded in Wigan, inland flood risk across all of England and Wales for Croston, Appley Bridge, Leyland and Whittle Le Woods. the first time.

  • Shoreline Summary
    HESKETH WITH BECCONSALL PARISH COUNCIL Shoreline Summary Edition Number 23 ~ April 2011 Spring has arrived at last – it doesn’t mean the end of the cold and wet weather but it does mean longer days with a promise of warmer weather and sun shine to come. Hesketh Bank Allotments Update Hesketh Bank Allotments and Leisure Gardeners Association are delighted to announce that the beginning of April saw the newly created Hesketh Bank Allotments site fully open to all plot holders. With the much needed support from our very committed local sponsors the former ‘Poor Marsh’ site has been transformed into the brand new Hesketh Bank community allotment site. With a total of 57 large plots and some smaller raised beds it is set to become one of the largest community allotment sites in West Lancashire and is a great asset for the village. In these times of austerity and with the demand for growing space at an all time high this is a magnificent achievement and is a symbol of the air of optimism within Hesketh Bank. HBALGA have worked tirelessly with the Parish Council for over 2 years to create a space where local residents can grow their own fruit and vegetables and the 17 lucky plot holders who were able to move on site in June last year are starting to see all their hard work paying off. On the plots you can tell that Spring has most certainly ‘Sprung’ and there is a real feeling amongst many that the village is truly beginning to sprout new shoots of growth in all aspects.
