Proposed Golf course at Pex Hill

As most folk in Cronton will no doubt be aware, there are plans for Widnes golf club to move to the Cronton area at some stage in the near future.
Plans have been put forward to both Knowsley Borough Council and Halton Borough Council.
Both councils have to be involved as the proposed course overlaps both councils areas of responsibility.
Knowsey, have at this time said they will not consider the plan until certain aspects of it are clarified and re-presented in a way to make it a valid application.
When the Parish Council are in a position to consider Crontons response and how we would be affected should a golf course be built here, a public meeting would be considered in order for the views of all may be known.
