The ‘Trails and Tales’ project, focuses on the rich and varied past of the area and has been running for the last two years - culminating in the trails which will ensure the lasting legacy of the project.

Trust Chair, Councillor Anne Jarvis, is hopeful that as well as those already involved in the project, the exciting prospect of helping develop an outdoor trail will attract new blood.
