Malling
RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION: Malling Tenants and Residents’ Association. Residents of Hereward Way are being polled by Cllr John Lamb about whether they would like to encourage wildflowers on their verges. Lewes Town Council is now sharing responsibility with the County Council for funding the cutting of many of the grass verges in Lewes. Most verges will receive four cuts a year, but some verges will receive special treatment to encourage wildflowers to grow. Wildflower areas will only be cut twice a year and the cuttings removed to provide the best conditions for flowers to flourish. Selective planting of wildflowers will also take place when funds allow. Cutting verges less often, helps preserve rare wild flower species and provides a habitat for other wildlife. If you live in Hereward Way please contact John Lamb on [email protected] to let him know which option you prefer: a) flowers in the grass or b) shorter verges.
