RADSTOCK HAS MUCH TO OFFER

The Iron age settlement of Radstock sits on the Roman built Fosse Way, south west of Bath.

The discovery of coal in 1763, led to the rapid growth in the area with former mines now making up a number of the Radstock wards within the town, all of which can explored in the Radstock Museum.

The area has evolved into a network of greenspaces and active ways providing lovely walks and cycleways in beautiful countryside and the town itself is situated within a conservation area recognised by white lias and historic terraces and buildings.

It is well worth a visit.

Communities invited to shape local renewable energy projects

Bath & North East Somerset Council is inviting communities to explore the potential for locally owned renewable energy projects.

The Energy in Your Community project is seeking three communities interested in developing small-scale renewable energy - such as solar farms or wind turbines - owned and operated by the community for long-term local benefit.

Whether a group is ready to take action or just beginning to explore options, registering interest is the first step.  Complete the online by 5pm, Friday 1 August.

As part of the Community Energy Network, ‘Energy in Your Community’ is a partnership between Bath & North East Somerset Council, Bath & West Community Energy (BWCE), the Centre for Sustainable Energy (CSE), and the University of Bath.  Together, we aim to support the development of 5MW of community-owned renewable generation across the area by 2030.
