Hay spreading at Bridge Inn Field

Message from Clive Dean, Shropshire Greenspace Officer

I have been told that they are hoping to cut the hay in the Ironbridge Gorge later this week and that we should get our delivery of flower rich hay to Bridge Inn fields in the latter half of the week.

As soon as I know I will email people to come and help spread the hay so that the wildflower seed can fall and increase the variety of flowers we have.

My plan will be to invite people from 4pm onward to join in.

 Please spread the message
