Unique Compass Feature and Pollinator-Friendly Planting Create Welcoming Community Space in Haydon Ward

Ashington Town Council is pleased to share news of a significant environmental enhancement project at Doves Corner in the Haydon Ward, which was completed in late summer and has been creating a more welcoming, accessible, and sustainable community space for residents to enjoy.

The project, which responded to longstanding calls from ward councillors for improvements to this well-used area, has transformed what was previously a tired seating area with overgrown features into an attractive, low-maintenance green space that will benefit residents and wildlife alike.
