Astley Park to host bonfire and fireworks Friday 6th November from 6.30pm onwards - Astley Park
F
AMILIES across Chorley will be able to attend a bonfire and fireworks display in Astley Park this year after Chorley Council announced it was working with one of the town’s major tourist attractions Botany Bay and local employer FI Real Estate Management to organise an event on Friday 6 November to mark the traditional bonfire celebrations. The Astley Park bonfire and fireworks will take place on the park’s playing fields from 6.30pm on Friday 6 November with the bonfire being lit at 7pm and the fireworks display launching at 7.30pm. Entry to the event is free but there will be collection buckets with voluntary donations going to the Mayor of Chorley’s charities, which include HomeStart Central Lancashire, St Catherine’s Hospice and Derian House. Councillor Peter Wilson, who oversees events at Chorley Council, said: “People have been telling us they would like to continue seeing a bonfire event in Astley Park and we’re looking forward to organising it this year with sponsorship and support from Botany Bay and FI Real Estate Management. It should be a great evening with a fantastic fireworks display set to light up the Chorley skies. “The Chorley Carnival Group has organised the event for the last two years but we decided to take over this year and make the event free so that more people could attend. Although there will be charity buckets for voluntary contributions for the Mayor’s charities.
10
“As it’s the first year we’re organising it, we’re planning on keeping it simple and traditional with a bonfire followed by a great fireworks show that will last around 15 minutes.
“There will also be a few food stalls but people are welcome to bring their own food and enjoy the show against the beautiful backdrop of Astley Hall.” Tim Knowles, MD of FI Real Estate Management and Botany Bay, added: “As major employers in the Chorley area, we are proud to be sponsoring and supporting the Astley Park bonfire and fireworks which is a great community event. It should be a great evening out for many local families and we can’t wait to see the spectacular fireworks over Astley Hall and the park.” Anyone attending the bonfire and fireworks event in Astley Park on Friday 6 November is being advised to park in Chorley town centre, where parking will be free after 5pm. The paths from the Park Road and Queens Road entrances to the park will have some lighting to help families find their way to the playing fields. There will be limited parking on Hallgate car park and restrictions will be put in place in across Astley Village. To keep up-to-date with plans for the bonfire and other events organised by Chorley Council, visit chorley.gov.uk/whatson, like Chorley Council on Facebook or follow @ChorleyCouncil

The Hall is set within the beautiful surroundings of Astley Park which include historic woodland, a lake, a fully renovated Victorian walled garden alongside clean and modern facilities for visitors to enjoy. The Hall is perhaps best known for its stunning Jacobean plasterwork ceilings and the house is built around an internal Elizabethan courtyard. The four wings of the house were extended by the families who lived here and most of the original features are retained to this day. The walled garden is a dedicated event space and since the Heritage Lottery funded renovation project in 2009 it has built up a varied programme of cultural events throughout the year. The east facing part of the walled garden is home to a community food growing project and includes a small orchard alongside raised beds full of vegetables, fruits, herbs and salads. Much of the produce is used by Café Ambio, the onsite café within the Coach House building. Café Ambio is open 7 days a week. The team are passionate about locally sourced homemade food, freshly baked scones, cakes, quality coffees and refreshments. Phone: 01257 515151
