Share your views and ideas on enhancing Shotwick Park
Cheshire West and Chester Council is working in partnership with Saughall and Shotwick Park Parish Council and The Mersey Forest and want to engage with local residents to develop ideas for the land at Shotwick Park. This includes the historic parkland, woodland, grassland, streams and other habitats.
We’re really keen to understand what people currently value in Shotwick Park and how they use it, to help inform future plans for the site. We’d also like to hear your views and ideas for how the site could be enhanced or positively managed into the future, for the benefit of local people, nature and the climate.

This information is also available in a downloadable PDF here.
You can find key questions and answers for the engagement here.
Alternatively, you can pick up a paper copy of the engagement information and survey and return it to us via the Shotwick Park survey return post boxes located at:
Blacon Library, Parade Enterprise Centre, 14 the Parade, Chester, CH1 5HN
Co-op supermarket, Church Road, Saughall, CH1 6EP
This engagement will be open until Sunday 16 March.
How your feedback will be used
Once the community engagement closes, the Council will consider the feedback received to help inform proposals for the site. A summary of the engagement findings will be published on this webpage, alongside the draft proposals for the site, and there will be an opportunity to comment on the draft proposals.
We will also hold public drop-in sessions in the local area commencing towards the end of March 2025, where you can come and talk to us about the draft proposals. Details of the public drop-in sessions will be made available on this webpage and will be widely publicised in the local community.
