MF Vale Royal 16Pp.Indd Two million trees for Vale Royal What does The Mersey Forest mean to you? You may think of trees and woodlands, and in a way you’d be right, after all, there have been over two million trees planted in Vale Royal alone! However, it means much, much more than that. Cheshire County Council and Vale Royal Borough Council are enthusiastic partners in The Mersey Forest where projects are contributing not only to the natural environment but also to the economic and social environments of local residents. Community woodlands create places for people to play, places to relax, places to meet and places to learn. These places also help the economy – attracting important investment into the area. The success of The Mersey Forest project is down to the dedicated partnership that works together to deliver a real change on the ground. In a recent survey, 95% of respondents supported the work of The Mersey Forest and, critically, 60% of people said that they had noticed a positive difference in their local environment due to increased woodland cover. Not bad for only 12 years work, especially when you consider that the full visual impact of the new woodlands will only be achieved after 20 years when the trees are taller and more established. Involving local people at every stage of the process is important to The Mersey Forest. As much as local people want new woodland areas they also want to see an improvement in the local economy, job creation, tourism, health and education. The Mersey Forest activities in Vale Royal all contribute to these. This document outlines some of the many schemes already in place through the Forest Partnership and looks to a successful future with all the partners in Vale Royal. Barrie R. Hardern, Chairman, Cheshire County Council The Mayor of Vale Royal, Councillor Norman Wright The Mersey Forest in Vale Royal Within Vale Royal, The Mersey Forest has created over 500 hectares of new community woodland, increasing it by an impressive 28%. The Mersey Forest advises Vale Royal landowners on environmental stewardship and provides information on woodland planting and management. A high level of community engagement is critical to the work of The Mersey Forest. Several ‘Friends of’ groups, including the Friends of Anderton and Marbury, Furey Wood, Owley Wood, Church Wood and Marshall’s Arm, operate across the community woodlands to ensure the success of the project.

  • Cheshire West & Chester Council
    CHESHIRE WEST & CHESTER COUNCIL: ELECTORAL REVIEW Submission to the Boundary Committee on Council Size. 1 Context 1.1 This submission sets out Cheshire West & Chester Council’s proposal on Council size. This is the first issue to be addressed in the electoral review of the area. The proposal is for a Council of 75 elected Members in Cheshire West & Chester. This proposal was made by resolution of the Council on 2 April 2009 at its first meeting after vesting day, on which it replaced former county and district councils. The three political parties represented on the Council; Conservative, Labour and Liberal Democrat, concurred in the making of the Council’s resolution. 1.2 The proposal has been formulated having regard to key principles of electoral review; that local government should be convenient to local people and effective. Further to these principles, the Council is of the belief that its proposal will ensure that all roles at political level can be carried out effectively, and will enable the authority to achieve its objective of being an exceptionally excellent Council. 1.3 Cheshire West & Chester is a newly created Unitary Council, delivering by direct provision or by commissioning, the full range of Local Authority services in its area. The range of its products is tremendous - from a direction sign on a footpath to the care of a vulnerable child. The Council has at its heart, the wish to serve the whole community of those who live in, work in, or otherwise visit Cheshire West and Chester. It serves a population of 329,100, the fourth largest of Unitary Local Authorities in the North West and the sixteenth largest in England.

Introduction 1.1 An Area of Archaeological Potential (AAP) was identified in the Congleton Borough Local Plan Deposit Draft (December 1994). The AAP has now been redefined and two Archaeological Character Zones (ACZs) have been identified within this. Each Zone is identified by its defining archaeological or historical characteristics, or Primary Characteristics. For example, in the Early Medieval Zone (Archaeological Character Zone 1), the defining characteristics include the site of an important early medieval church, potentially of Minster status, as well as the pre-Viking crosses in the Market Place and other examples of sculpture from the same period in St Mary’s churchyard.
