£300 grant for rustic seats

A GRANT of £300 has been received from the Rotary Club of Doncaster for Tickhill Countryside Group to provide around six large hardwood logs to act as rustic seats around Jubilee Wood.

The logs will be supplied by the Sandbeck Estate and any spare cash will be used to plant apple, pear and damson trees on the approach to the wood.
