Shropshire and Staffordshire National Trust Volunteers

Dear SSNTV Volunteers,

Many thanks for coming to see me today. I really appreciate all your efforts. I have been neglected for such a long time but now I face a bright future!

Many years ago I was a peaceful little field, but then it all became a bit hectic with bits of me taken away. Then everything went quiet. 

Thanks to lovely Al and Kate, and now you, I am starting to return to the good old days. I like the new soil, and I am pleased that the rusty machinery and debris are being taken away.

It will take me a time, but I can now start to show off my lovely flowers and invite all the birds and animals back. I am particularly proud of the orchids which have re-appeared. Hopefully all my nice flowering trees will continue to grow well. I know that Al is really fond of the field maples. I also look forward to welcoming all the new visitors to my new pond.

Thanks again,

Stretton Westwood Quarry
