Six figure investment in Northumberland town to prepare for more visitors

A Northumberland town is set for a series of improvements as visitor numbers continue to grow.

Wooler is to get a £650,000 investment in infrastructure following a report which stated that over the past 18 months, the number of visitors attracted to the area for day trips, short breaks and holiday had steadily grown following the impact of the Coronavirus pandemic.

Northumberland County Council's Cabinet agreed to the funding after it heard that the appeal of staycations is likely to continue, as is the desire of more residents to explore their local countryside more often.
