Butterfly garden at St Mary's Church

A Butterfly Garden is being created in Newtown.

The new garden is being created around St Mary's Church. It follows the successful application by Newtown Town Council for a grant towards its cost.

The Welsh Government's 'Places for Nature' grant will fund seeds and materials for the garden via Keep Wales Tidy.

Town council staff are building and growing the garden which aims to attract and support butterflies and other wildlife in the church graveyard.
