The Parish Council heard from several residents at the Council meeting this week and via email about the recent disruption caused by both misleading road closure signs and the duration that the signs remained in place.

County Councillor Vic Thomson attended the meeting and advised that the signs are put out by a third party provider and not by the County Council. However, the County should have more control.

The following website gives more specific details of roadworks https://one.network/uk

Councillor Thomson will continue to push for better information on roadworks.

It has been a while since we stopped doing our themed events for obvious reasons.

As we want to celebrate Xmas in the most normal possible way, this Sunday we are bringing our Spirit of Christmas to the village so all the village can get together in an outdoor area having fun!

We invited amazing traders to be with us from 10.00 to 3.00 so you can get that special gift without having to face madness!

see you all then!
