Sadly one of the new sign posts at Hield Lane Juction has been knocked down, this has been reported to Cheshire east highways team and hopefully it will be fixed soon.
the new road signs have finaly arrived and been installed, the Parish council have had to fight for several years to get these signs replaced at the junctions of Hield Lane, Budworth heath lane and Budworth road. The street names signs on Frog lane and Budworth Road are also to be replaced in due course. We hope this will make life easier for visitors to navigate around the parish.
traCE – track, report, alert Cheshire East
You can report problem streets and highways issues using ‘traCE’. You can also check what issues have already been reported to Cheshire East. TraCE replaces the previous system, Fix My Street.
The Parish council legally have to have a noticeboard somewhere in the parish where notices can be displayed for the general public to view. Sadly, after many years of repairs and maintenance the old notice board at Hield Grove had deteriorated beyond repair so the decision was take this summer to invest in a new one. Steve and Nathan from HHG kindly braved the freezing November weather to put the new noticeboard in place. We hope that the new notice board will last just as long as its predecessor and can be used by the parish for many years to come.
If any one would like to add notice to the notice board please contact the parish clerk.
Over the summer the Parish council took the decision to have the Pinfold cleared of the scrub and bramble that has grown in and around the walls, the pinfold in Aston by Budworth dates back to at least the 18th century and is made of traditional sandstone blocks and mortar. It would have been used to keep stray livestock in until their owners could pay to have them released. To prevent the weed and vegetation from undermining and damaging the mortar in the walls further it was decided that Steve Hankey from HHG would clear the area. I think we can all agree that he did a great job!
