A Redcar estate will be blooming marvellous thanks to a grant to develop an overgrown area.

Urban Britain in Bloom on the Harwal estate has already created a millennium garden and walkway to improve the neighbourhood with a garden area for residents to enjoy.

Now the group plans to develop Cherry Tree Way, on the main route into Redcar. The road already has sapling cherry trees but the group needed cash to brighten up the site.

The £500 grant will pay for plants, shrubs, the hiring of equipment for the initial clearing of the site and fencing and paving for pathways.
