Gateway to the Future
The first trigger project by Newbiggin Life is now complete!
Many of you will have
noticed the improvements to the approach to
the village from Woodhorn Road. The creation of this striking environmental
improvement scheme will help revitalise the area with new housing, services
and facilities.
Residents of the village joined Wansbeck MP Denis Murphy in May to unveil the completed Newbiggin 'gateway' feature, a landmark which we hope will attract a great deal of interest and help put the village back on the Northumberland map. We want to hear your views on the gateway and the environmental improvements on Woodhorn Road.
"An attractive
and welcoming first impression for visitors travelling into Newbiggin
reflects the worth and vitality of this community."
Chairman of Newbiggin Life Councillor David Nicholson.
"One of Newbiggin's
strengths has always been its strong community spirit. It is wonderful
to see the ideas and efforts of the community realised through this flagship
project."
Wansbeck MP Denis Murphy.
