  • This Meanwood Valley Walk Download
    An introduction to the The Meanwood Valley has long been celebrated as a ‘green artery’ in Leeds, bringing rural countryside into the heart of the city. In this green corridor is a rich mosaic of habitats, including woodland, lowland heath, meadow, watercourses and ponds. Though much of the valley is readily accessible from local urban areas, it provides an excellent opportunity to experience and enjoy wildlife in often seemingly-remote surroundings. The valley is centred on two watercourses, the topmost being Adel Beck which rises in Bramhope, but which gives way to Meanwood Beck just south of the Outer Ring Road. The becks are home to fish, such as stone loach and bullhead, as well as the native white-clawed crayfish, which is sadly now threatened. Keep your eyes open when walking near the becks and you may be lucky to spot one of our resident kingfishers or otters. Where the becks flow between boulders and within the woodland, the cool, moist conditions provide the perfect habitat for ferns, liverworts and mosses. In contrast, the poor, free-drain - ing soils and open and exposed conditions at Adel Moor are ideal for heather and if you’re particularly lucky, you may spot the com - mon lizards which live here. Small ponds along the valley are also the breeding grounds of frogs, toads and newts, including the protected great crested newt. The woodlands that cover much of the green space in the valley provide wonderful scenes of carpets of ground flora in spring and rich colours in the autumn. Mammals such as roe deer, stoats and several species of bats make the woodland their home, together with a wide variety of bird species, from house sparrows and long-tailed tits to jays, red kites and all three native woodpecker – the great spotted, lesser spotted and green woodpecker.

  • Boston Spa Letter
    The Resident Councillor Gerald Wilkinson Councillor John Procter Councillor Alan Lamb Conservative Group Office 2nd Floor East Civic Hall Leeds LS1 1UR Tel: 0113 37 88557 Our Ref: GW/JP/AL/ 2 February 2018 Dear fellow resident, We are writing this public letter, as your elected Ward Councillors, in response to a communication issued by the Head teacher of Boston Spa School on 31 January 2018. We were disappointed to read the Head teachers letter which is inaccurate, misleading, alarmist and irresponsible. The letter has caused unnecessary concern and distress, amongst pupils who attend Boston Spa and Wetherby secondary schools and their families. Here are the facts: There will be no snap closure of Boston Spa or Wetherby High schools. Your Ward Councillors will hold a public meeting for all to express their views. A Government Minister will now decide whether Boston Spa School can become an academy, in partnership with the Gorse Academies Trust Ltd. The Minister has three options. 1. Allow the application by Boston Spa School to go ahead and partner with the Gorse Academies Trust Ltd. 2. Reject the application. 3. Defer any decision to consider schooling and school places across the wider district. The Minister is likely to rule on the matter within the month. We are further aware of two proposals that have been put to the Regional Schools Commissioner regarding secondary school provision in our area. 1) Boston Spa School and the Gorse Academies Trust Ltd. have proposed a merger with Wetherby High school, they would then close Wetherby High School and relocate all pupils to the existing Boston Spa School, the Sixth Form at Boston Spa School would also close.
