News  »  Newton Hall Park Pond Update

The pond at Newton Hall Park has unfortunately dried out recently. In part this is due to the dry weather we have had until the last week or so. But further investigation has also revealed an old field drain that will have contributed to this situation.

Whilst it is normal for natural ponds to dry out occasionally the Parish Council are keen to ensure we are doing all we can to support our local wildlife.

Lancashire Wildlife Trust have been informed and have agreed to come and assess the situation. 

A further update will be published in due course.
