Work resumes on developing the field off Parsonage Way

The Parish Council are pleased to announce that the development of the field off Parsonage Way, adjoining the main A57 into community parkland has resumed after a pause in work in March due to the coronavirus outbreak and subsequent lockdown restrictions.

Great Sankey Parish Council are working with Warrington Borough Council to improve the drainage, install a new front boundary fence, create better access with a new entrance and pathway. Landscaping will include a perimeter hedge of Sweet Briar Rose and Western Red Cedar; this will add colour and attract wildlife to the park. An avenue of trees will border the new pathway, which will create a welcoming arrival into the parkland. Colour and scent will be added by further planting near the entrance/along the pathway.

Once the groundwork has been completed the field will open as community parkland for local residents to enjoy. The planting will happen in phases throughout the year.
