Goldshaw Booth Parish Council
Summer BBQ, Ash Die Back, Planters, Footpaths, Vacancies...
The project to remove the trees affected by Ash die back has now completed, and from a grant received from Barrowford and Western Parishes we have been able to purchase a number of new fruit trees, which we will arrange the planting of during autumn.
We’ve also been able to purchase some new planters, from grant money received, which will be sited in Spenbrook. For anyone wanting to see what they will look like, we have ordered ones which match those used at the bottom of Jinny Lane in Roughlee.
It will soon be time for the Summer BBQ, which is scheduled for Saturday 10th August 2024 at 2pm around the Pavilion on the park. Let’s hope that the weather is kind to us, as it is a great opportunity both to meet up with new villagers from Spenbrook as well as catching up with our neighbours. There will be both meat and vegetarian food options available.
We have applied to take up the Public Rights of Way Scheme and Biodiversity Small Grants Scheme offered by Lancashire County Council, and will be looking at how we can utilise the grants made available through these schemes to enhance our landscape.
Finally, we still have 2 vacancies on the Parish Council, and would like to encourage anyone with an interest in improving any aspect of village life to get in touch. We meet once a month, on the 1st Thursday for less than 2 hours, and your ideas and time would be greatly appreciated.
