Wollerton Wetlands – good news

Although legal/practical access to the Wetlands was established earlier this year, a decade of lack of access/neglect meant that parts of the original paths around it had become overgrown and nettle infested.
Shropshire Council’s Outdoor Recreation dept recently arranged for a work party from the Probation Service to heavily strim and cut back vegetation around the site, and the route is now transformed, see pictures below.

A circular walk is now very easy, and further visits are planned through the year to uncover the original chipping paths.
The more people use the paths the clearer they will remain, so if you’ve not been before, why not try it now?
Maybe you’ll see some of its special wildlife, as below.
