Ready to play after £12k fundraising
With generous donations from the Simpson McCreath Trust, JH Greenwood & Co and Northumberland County Council to get the ball rolling, the local community raised around £12,000 in less than a year to cover the cost.
The ribbon was cut by David McCreath of Simpson McCreath Trust, ably assisted by Colin Hardy, local county councillor, and Gareth Greenwood of JH Greenwood & Co.
