The Isle of Axholme and Hatfield Chase Landscape Partnership have created new information boards and benches for visitors to enjoy along the Isle of Axholme Greenway.
The Greenway is a path which connects the Isle with Scunthorpe, and is enjoyed by many runners, walkers, cyclists and others. Moreover, the new Belton Kitchen and Visitor Centre has trails which connect with the Greenway, allowing visitors to the centre access to the beautiful Isle countryside.
Andrew reports, "The benches are decorated and carved and have been installed at mid-way points along the route. The colourful boards display information on wildlife and local history and heritage, and can be found on the Greenway in Scunthorpe, Gunness, Keadby, Ealand and Godnow Bridge.
"This is thanks to £10,000 of funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, the Conservative-run North Lincolnshire Council and the SSE Keadby Windfarm Community Fund.
"To help you plan your visit to the Greenway, a trail leaflet is available from Tourist Information Centres, visitor attractions and facilities in North Lincolnshire. A downloadable version will be available on the Partnership’s website: http://ioahc.net/.
"With the weather forecast to take a turn for the better, it’s a great time to make the most of this fantastic local attraction."
