Councillors hail success of inaugural celebration event for local nature reserve
Councillors in the Tettenhall Wightwick ward of Wolverhampton have hailed the success of the first ever event celebrating the Smestow Valley Local Nature Reserve, which runs through the heart of the ward.
The event took place on Saturday (July 8), bringing together local organisations and charities who have an interest in the nature reserve and want to encourage more people to enjoy the benefits it brings to the local area.
The event was the first to be held, with organisers intending to hold it annually in the summer.
At the popular Cupcake Lane café on Henwood Road, the former Tettenhall Railway Station, the restored station sign was unveiled by the Mayor of Wolverhampton, Councillor Dr Michael Hardacre, along with local councillors and resident Bob Kyte, who donated the original letters that he had kept from the original sign.
