A small waterway called Woodnook Water which flows through Baxenden, the home of Hollands Pies was cleaned up as part of MWH Mersey Basin Week. Nope, we didn't find any pie trays floating down the stream but we did find some other interesting items...
The event coordinated by the environmental charity Prospects Foundation involved volunteers from the Baxenden Prospects Panel.
We found lots of wire, metal fencing, tarpaulin, tv casing and a couple of tyres - well, a clean up wouldn't be a clean up without a tyre! On the banks and hidden in bushes we found quite a few beer cans, crisp packets and chocolate wrappers.
Thanks to the Prospects Foundation and Baxenden Prospects Panel for their involvement in MWH Mersey Basin Week
