Please make your comments in the box below:
As a person who worked in Grange for over 20yrs and still has an interest as a joint owner of Lime Kiln Wood, I think the plan as a whole is very well focused on the needs of the townsfolk and the new wave of commuters and retirees. My interest as a Walking for Health volunteer and lifelong environmentalist is the lack of reference to the natural assets, the hills and woods of Windermere Road and Lindale Road. Both roads are lethal to walk along because of the lack of footways on long stretches. There should be safe walkways to Lindale by either route, giving access to Eggerslack, Brown Robin and Lime Kiln Wood. A footpath link between these woods is a sensible aspiration which could be added to the plan. For our part as a trust dedicated to enhancing wildlife and public access we would be happy to work with the local authorities to bring it about. At the moment I believe the draft plan has concentrated too much on the field and copse at Kents Bank.
