A POPULAR destination on the Cheshire/Shropshire border has made changes to a public event in order to welcome more people. Combermere Abbey, just outside of Whitchurch, has announced that its grounds will be reopened to the public from Wednesday, April 14 for the popular Bluebell walks, which will now be held over a five-week period. The walk is normally held one day a year but plans are now in place for it to be held on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays from April 14 until May 23, while demand could lead to an extension. Abbey owner Sarah Callander Becket said: “I am so excited to welcome local people from Cheshire and north Shropshire back to Combermere Abbey this year.
