The North Kyme conservation area was created from an area of litter-bound ground at the north end of the village. The junction of the A153 and Causeway road (Mill Lane) had for years been collecting blown away rubbish from bins and out of cars. Being at the entrance to the village it had always set a bad impression for visitors. In 2002 a grant was applied for to a European fund "The Catalyst Fund" to enable the area to be re-generated into an area that not only was more appealing to the eye, but an area that could be managed to harbour local wild life. The site was lucky enough to benefit from a seep-out pool from the nearby Skirth that forms a natural habitat for many animals and plants. It is a real delight to sit out on the benches and either watch the wildlife or watch motor bikes criuse past on a Cadwell park race day.

The pictures above show attendees of North Kyme youth workshops putting the finishing touches to the benches aswell the children of North Kyme primary school planting some of the many hedging plants required to surround the site.
Keeping the site clean is the responsibility of all who use it, so if you see some litter please place it in the bin, If the bin is full and you are able, please empty it into the nearby lay-by bins. Most of all ENJOY IT.
