( i.e from Lower Kinnerton to the Cat & Fiddle). The Highways Agency is responsible for motorways and trunk roads which are done separately. Cycleways are salted where they are part of the 1200 miles of salted roads.The number to ring about these roads is 0845 002 0666. Other roads have to wait until there is capacity, i.e. the 1200 miles have been done. Footways and other cycleways are not treated except where frosty/icy conditions last for several days. The action of traffic is essential for the 'gritting' to work, as it breaks the salt granules down to either prevent ice forming or to melt it. Hence gritting roads with low levels of traffic would not work as the salt granules would not get ground down! If you go to www.cheshire.gov.uk/winter which is where this link should take you, you will find all the info about winter gritting and should find the map of the roads in Chester that should be done in the 1200 miles of priority routes in Cheshire. --------------------------------------- Tattenhall Village Sign.
For some time, it has been the wish of your Parish Council to replace the much loved, but worn out, village centre sign. This is it! But what does it all mean? The topmost ring is representative of a “Terret Ring” found in the area of the Rookery and which dates back to the late Iron Age of the 1st Century B.C. It is rare, and was part of the saddle used by the Celts of that time on their chariot horses. Below that, we have the flag of St. George, and the Rose of England to represent our national pride. Then we have the sword of the Tatnall Family, from whom it is believed that we either took our name, or they took theirs from the village. The centre is of St Alban’s Church, the ecclesiastical centre, and probably the oldest building of our village, and which we are led to believe was also the site of a Roman villa, representing the present and the past of our village settlement. Then there is the Elizabethan house, also representing our history and the village’s built environment. The batsman represents sport in village life, and the man with his pig represents the artistic side. The office block and the machinery driving wheel is to recognise business in the village. The Remembrance Pillar represents those who gave so much to let the village be as it is today. Then we come to the sheaves of corn that surround the pole, representing the historic County of Cheshire, along with the squirrels that are representative of our fine Primary School. Then, and finally, the cow and calf, representing our large and very special rural and farming area. This is an opportune time and place to express the villages thanks to all those who have been so generous with their help in this work. Andrew, Merle and Ben Smith for its design, creation, erection and for getting us where we are. T.G. Group (Ellesmere), for generous donation of the concrete that we cannot see, but which makes it all safe and sound. MJR Plant and Groundworks Ltd., from Newton-by-Tattenhall, for the excavation work, and to Wrightway Plant Machinery from the Wirral, for the loan of equipment. Finally, to Cllr. Doug Haynes, who took the lead for the Parish Council and project managed the whole scheme for the benefit of our community. To everybody, the thanks of all of us go out.

Village Sign was unveiled on 27 April 2009 by ---------------------------------------
