As farmers, we hear a lot of jokes about sheep.

We’d tell them to the dog, but he’d herd them all!

These are the figures from the speed monitor for the period 26th Feb to 26th Mar. The monitor was located on The Green facing west. The total number of vehicles in this period was 9193.

Approximately 41% of the vehicle movements were below 30mph. 40% were recorded on the 30mph speed limit and 18% above the speed limit.

The monitor is now located on Mill Road for the next 4 weeks.

Dear All,

I hope you are keeping well.

The Barn will host the final Contemplative Prayer evening on Monday (4th) at 7.30pm – a time of stillness, quiet space and reflection. Please use this link if you’d like to join us online:
