Fisher's Field

Development will go ahead with plans for the field with NO consultation with residents of Lennox Court, residents whose lives are blighted by vandalism, abuse, trespass and wilful damage of their property.

Whatever happened to consulting victims?

Problems with dog dropping have not been addressed. The fence that supposedly protects the residents only makes the damage and nuisance of balls hitting windows and smashing TV dishes worse.

How would the Councillors know if they do not answer emails or visit residents who have evidence and opinions that contravene theirs?

Not that Gordon Marsden MP is any use in this instance.

Work begins to transform Fishers Field
Fishers Field in Highfield Ward will soon be transformed into a family-friendly community space as a number of exciting new developments are ready to take shape.



The £250,000 development, externally funded through the Play Pathfinder Programme, will see a number of improvements and additions to the area. This includes a new Multi Use Games Area with 3G surface, perfect for all-weather sports, and a new children’s play area.



General improvements will be also be made to the area including landscaping and the installation of new pathways and seating. This will all help to make the space a great place for the neighbourhood to use, bringing the community together and providing an area for everyone to enjoy.



A new site entrance will be positioned on Highfield Road, providing an attractive welcoming to the area.



Cllr Lily Henderson MBE and Cllr Sue Fowler, Highfield ward councillors, have been involved throughout the process to support the developments, allocating some of their ward budget to the funds. Cllr Lily Henderson MBE says: “Fishers Field is currently only used for playing football, but these new developments will mean there is something for all the family to enjoy. It is really important to give children and young people a place to play in a safe and fun environment and an area for the elderly to sit and enjoy.”



Cllr Sue Fowler added: “We have been campaigning for a long time to put the space to good use and it’s great to see it becoming a reality. We are really looking forward to seeing the residents enjoying the new facilities in the near future.”
