Plan to protect and enhance Wrekin forest
Telford & Wrekin Council is set to approve the adoption of a new management plan for The Wrekin Forest as part of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
This is part of the council’s commitment to protect, enhance and extend the network of green spaces which characterise the borough.
It is estimated that up to 120,000 people visit The Wrekin every year. This massive popularity reflects its attraction for those leading healthy lifestyles, providing the facilities and the environment for all ages to enjoy.
Local authorities with an area of outstanding natural beauty in their boundary have a statutory requirement to produce such a plan.
