  • Stoneclough Community Woodland Improvement Project Newsletter
    STONECLOUGH COMMUNITY WOODLAND IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NEWSLETTER Community Opportunity There is a great opportunity to improve a small local woodland. It is behind Prestolee Primary School and next to the recently improved canal towpath. You can get there on foot from Church Road, Riverside Drive or the towpath. Present Condition The site was once the garden of a large house belonging to Irwell Bank Mill. But dead trees, saplings, brambles, overgrown vegetation and litter on this land create a poor habitat and getting around the site is difficult. Plans for Improvement The Primary School, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers Groups, Zac’s Youth Bars, Stoneclough Community Centre, Holiday Club, Manchester Bolton & Bury Canal Society and other local voluntary groups want to improve access to this land and the quality and diversity of its habitat. It is a place where local voluntary groups, families and individuals can develop new skills, learn about and enjoy the local environment and wildlife. The initial plans (shown overleaf), are to survey and uncover what is on the site, create paths to give safe access around the site and to the canal towpath. We aim to plant native trees, shrubs and bulbs, and create a dry hedge from coppiced branches. Wherever possible we will keep and improve existing features. Tree work will start in mid-March. The site may be fenced off for safety reasons from April to May whilst these improvements take place and it will then re-open to the public. Existing footpath access will stay open for most of the time. Funding, Support & Community Involvement Grant money has already been obtained from central government, and there is also funding from Kearsley Area Forum, Bolton at Home, Prestolee Academy Trust and the Canal Society.

  • Spatial Patterns of Income Deprivation in Greater Manchester
    Spatial Patterns of Income Deprivation in Greater Manchester Which places have been improving and declining? Alex Macdougall and Ruth Lupton About this slide pack Greater Manchester has experienced relatively strong economic growth since 2001 but, as is well known, this has not been evenly distributed. Most analyses of these patterns take the form of maps of neighbourhood ranks on the English Indices of Deprivation (IMD). These report relative changes. In other words, changes in GM are affected by trends elsewhere. They also relate to Lower-layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs), statistical units at the small neighbourhood scale which are not named and do not necessarily correspond to places people can identify. This slide pack reports on absolute changes in identifiable named places , made up of groups or clusters of LSOAs. It tells us which places have actually got better or worse on measures of income deprivation . 2 Outline 1. Analysing change in income deprivation 2. The distribution of income deprivation in England and Greater Manchester 3. Defining ‘severe income deprivation’ (SID) 4. Severely income deprived places: clusters of SID LSOAs 5.

  • Moses Gate Local Nature Reserve Is Situated in the Croal Irwell Valley to the South West of Bolton Town Centre and Extends South to the Salford Boundary
    Moses Gate LNR, Bolton Development of the Reserve Moses Gate Local Nature Reserve is situated in the Croal Irwell Valley to the south west of Bolton town centre and extends south to the Salford Boundary. Centred on Rock Hall and Crompton Lodges, the site was designated a Local Nature Reserve in 2009 and attracts many visitors to enjoy the countryside between Leverhulme Park and Kearsley. Much of the reserve is on reclaimed industrial land which was polluted and degraded during the industrial revolution and through to the mid-1900s. This now attractive and diverse landscape provides valuable habitats for wildlife and attracts many recreational visitors who enjoy walking, cycling and horse riding in this landscape now restored to nature. What Can be Seen The reserve consists mainly of native broadleaf woodland covering nearly half of the area with other habitats of wildflower meadows, marshland areas, developing heathland, ponds and lodges that are also managed for wildlife. The rivers Croal and Irwell provide the backbone of the reserve with some extended views beyond the reserve to the moors at Winter Hill. Crompton Lodges support a variety of waterfowl, bird life and wetland plants with car parking and a children’s playground close to hand. A network of paths and bridleways provide routes to explore the rest of the valley, discovering remnants of industrial features not yet reclaimed by nature. The fragile habitats at Darcy Lever Gravel Pits (pictured below), provide another treasure to the north of the reserve. Managed by the Gravel Pits Action Group, disused gravel extraction has provided a valuable patchwork of habitats supporting mosses, dragonflies and damselflies, amphibians, birdlife and heathland vegetation.
