Rode Heath's yarn bombers have been at it again – with a change of scene for Valentine's Day.

Every season talented women in the village decorate the the post box outside Rode Heath Village store in Sandbach Road.

Last Valentine's Day it was a pair of swans and this year it's gnomes complete with hats and hearts.

Alsager Nub News told here  how in the past Mimi Smissen from Millers Wharf and fellow crocheter, Sylvia Totman, from Sandbach Road, made a stunning post box topper for the Coronation and then one for autumn.
