A Dudley borough nature reserve that attracts thousands of visitors from across the country every year is set to benefit from a new wardens base and education centre.
Site work for the new base has begun at Saltwells Nature Reserve this week and the base is expected to be completed this winter.
Renowned for its geological importance, extensive bluebell woodland and wildlife, the site is set to receive National Nature Reserve status later this year.
The building will provide a much needed base for Dudley Council’s wardens and people who volunteer at the 247 acre green space.
It will also act as an education centre for school groups and community activities and sessions.
