hedge planting on Waterlode by Rotary members in Nantwich

Rotary Club members in Nantwich put their backs into a project to plant a hedge along Waterlode.

The scheme, funded by Nantwich Partnership, saw 350 “whips” planted in a record time of two hours.

Jeff Stubbs, chairman of Nantwich Partnership, said: “Once we had set out every plant, the group made short shrift of the 350 hedging plants.

“The whole stretch of previously bare fence looks better already.

“So, with some good spring and summer weather, we should see the hedge improving significantly.”

Rotary Club member Tony Hoy said: “This previously bare stretch of Waterlode, will now look more attractive as well as having much greater wildlife potential.

“We were delighted to put our backs into this venture and look forward to seeing the fruits of our labour in the summer.”

Mr Stubbs added: “This project had been on the “to-do list” of Nantwich Partnership for well over a year.

“It was thanks to Rotarians getting involved that the impetus came along to get it done!

“On behalf of Nantwich Partnership, I’d like to thank everyone for their invaluable help.”
