Goostrey Footpaths Group Millennium Project

The aim of the project has been to make the footpath between Mill Lane and Boothbed Lane, a major link between the two ends of the village, more accessible and pleasant for local people to use.

In particular, the aim was to make it easier and safer for those who are no longer especially agile to enjoy walking both for exercise and to enjoy the countryside.

This was achieved by replacing stiles with gates and bridging a very muddle area between two fields by an impressive boardwalk.

The project was funded by Manchester Airport Community Trust Fund with supporting finance from Shell UK and Cheshire County Council.
