Ball Grove Tree Planting

The Parish Council were extremely fortunate in securing some of the Climate Emergency Funding from Pendle Borough Council for tree planting at Ball Grove Park, in March 2022.

The Council looked at various options of trees to purchase, and with help from the tree officer at Pendle Borough Council, we purchased 12 silver birch trees in order to create a lasting tribute to the Queen's Jubilee.

This line of trees is called 'The Queens Platinum Jubilee Avenue', and they were planted on Saturday 2nd April.

There was an immense amount of volutary help to get this project completed.  Without the help of everyone who attended on the day, there is just no possibility that this would have been done.

We do hope that you feel that it is a fitting tribute and feel that it enhances the whole park.
