South Ribble Borough Council has issued an apology after accidentally mowing down a local nature area within Paradise Park in Moss Side, Lancashire. The incident resulted in the destruction of various plants and animals, including frogs, toads, mice, newts, mint moths, and wildflowers.
Council bosses have apologised after a Lancashire wildlife haven has been wrecked after it was mown. South Ribble Borough Council has apologised after a local nature area was left strewn with decapitated creatures and flattened flowers – having been accidentally mown.
He also noted the irony in South Ribble having this year implemented a policy of leaving some sections of grass uncut in its green spaces in order to boost biodiversity – something he said had borne fruit in Paradise Park – only for the results now to be butchered. He is hopeful, however, that the bog garden will soon be teaming with life once again. “Nature does at least recover quickly,” David said.
