If you've visited the Dane Meadow this week you might have already spotted the new labels that have appeared.

In a joint project with Holmes Chapel based Bespak, we have identified 18 trees along the paths and labelled them with a photograph and information about the species.

We have a trail available on our website that you can print to take with you on your walk, or we'll have some printed at the start point of the Family Fun Run on Daresbury Close tomorrow morning.
