A PLAY area in Ross-on-Wye has been given a funding boost from money given by developers.

The Ropewalk play area will benefit from £7,000 from Herefordshire Council from 106 money reserved for play schemes.

Money is being raised for a project at the Ropewalk. The town council has allocated £10,000 to the project for the next tax year, but the whole project is expected to cost £150,000, which will be done in three phases- each costing £50,000.
