Surlingham Parish Council would like to inform parishioners that the play area will be out of bounds on Friday 17th April.
Maintenance work will soon be taking place at the play area. The tractor will be dismantled and removed, and the bench just outside the play area will also be taken away as its legs have become rotten.
Surlingham Parish Council’s meeting will follow the Annual Meeting of Surlingham Parish after a mandatory 2-minute wait between the meetings.
Big news here at the farm. Our fresh farm reared Belted Galloway beef has arrived! Sooooo many cuts to choose from and just in time for the Easter Weekend. This aint no April Fools. As well as this today we had a huuuuuge delivery of bread. Lots of loaves and baguettes and even some hot crossed buns. Just be quick as when they are gone… well obviously… they are gone.
Sarah and Viloet have beenhard at it stocking the fridges and freezers and shelves in time for you to come down and have the best shop with all the tasty goodies. If you have to be bothered to pop down on one weekend… this weekend would be it… and then why not pop down every weekend after that. Heck… every day after that.
Full to the brim with all your kitchen cupboard essentials, treats, pizzas, eggs, beef, bread, icecream, fish, meats, cosmetics, oils and much much more. Why not even pop into the wonderful Teles patiserie for a treat and a natter whilst you are here.
Whatever you are, wherever you are, whenever you are… have a wonderful weekend
Lots of love, the Yare valley Team x
Information received from Sally Neave
Surlingham Parish Council is pleased to launch the public consultation for the proposed refurbishment of the village play area. The consultation will run from 1 April to 30 April 2026, and we’re inviting all residents to share their views on the designs, equipment options, and overall layout.
Your feedback will directly influence the final proposals, so we encourage everyone—especially families and regular users of the play area—to take part.
Involving Surlingham Primary School
Children at Surlingham Primary School will also be invited to participate in the consultation when they return after the Easter Holidays.
Communication from the Parish Council will be sent via the school to ensure pupils have the opportunity to contribute their ideas.
