The Rose Project
Our wonderful Carsington & Hopton Gardeners have installed a new rose bush display on the Village Green adjacent to the Bug House. The roses were known to grow in the school garden during WWI and hence will be a pretty memorial for villagers who have lost loved ones in conflict. The project was supported through the Carsington Pastures Windfarm Grant scheme.
Play Tunnels
We are delighted to have installed new play tunnels as part of our ongoing efforts to improve the village green for residents and visitors. Hopefully providing fun and enjoyment for the litlle ones for years to come.

Titan Bug Hotel
A new feature on the Village Green, the Bug Hotel will provide a boost to our biodiversity by providing food and shelter for our native insect species and an excellent educational feature for local school children.
The project has been 50% funded through the Carsington Pasture Windfarm Fund in partnership with West Coast Energy Ltd.

Bird Feeders
We have installed new bird feeders on the Village Green to attract our feathered friends and help improve the biodiversity of villages. Alongside the feeders, a new lockable storage bench has been installed which will ensure feed is properly managed so that we do not attract any unwanted wildlife. Thanks to Councillor Edmiston for organising.
