Town Shops Restored
W
illenhall Town Centre is benefiting from a Townscape Heritage
Initiative (THI) – a £1 million pound grant scheme to help with the
cost of repairing, restoring and reusing historic buildings.
The THI scheme is being funded by Heritage Lottery Fund and VIEW (Visionary
Investment Enhancing Walsall), and due to the high level of interest in the grant
scheme Walsall Council have also agreed to contribute £50,000 towards the THI.
Four projects are now complete after the owners successfully applied for a grant
towards the cost of repair and restoration works.
Blunts at 30 Market
Place has had historic
features reinstated such
as its chimney and
repairs have been carried
out to the 19th century
frontage.
JR Holyhead at 32 Cross
Street and RS News
at 57 Wolverhampton
Street have both had new
shopfronts installed based
on a traditional design.
RS News had its Upvc
windows replaced with
those of a timber frame
based on the original
window profiles. 58
Wolverhampton Street has
undertaken roof repairs.
Other grant funded schemes are on site or due to start works shortly. Look out
for the project banners that indicate the works are being funded through the
Willenhall THI.
For further details about the Willenhall THI grant scheme please
contact Mandy Hall, Regeneration Officer, Development and
Delivery, Regeneration, Walsall Council, Civic Centre, Darwall
Street, Walsall WS1 1DG

FRIENDS OF FIBBERSLEY LOCAL NATURE RESERVE
The Friends of Fibbersley Local Nature Reserve, would like to bring you up to date with developments over
the winter months.
Litter, which is always a problem, has been kept under control, as the foliage allows this job to be completed
with greater ease than when everything is in full bloom. Luckily we have a lady who never goes without her
carrier bag, and almost always fills it, she does a wonderful job. Lots of litter gets ‘blown’ onto the reserve,
but we do still get fly tipping occasionally. This means the council help with the disposal, but out team do the
removal to a ‘pick up’ point.
We also have a ‘Fund Raising’ lady, who organised a very successful stall on the Christmas Market in
Willenhall, raising a goodly sum despite the cold weather.
We have other members who have been busily erecting Bird Boxes, in good time for the nesting season.
They not only erected them but made them too, all following the RSPB’s guidelines for hole sizes and
positioning.

Special Newt Habitats have been made in a couple of spots, this with the guidance of the Ranger from the
council’s Green Spaces section.
