Photos can have images of livestock, but not children.

The winners will be required to send a *jpeg file within 24 hours of being notified.


Entries should be posted to

Orchard Cottage, Dyke Lane

Footpaths Group

Following the recent Parish Council meeting, a number of people have raised concerns about footpaths in the village, and in response to this we propose meeting to discuss this, with the view of organising a working group to report back to the Parish Council.

 

If you would be interested in attending, then please email Nigel Evans at ni*********@*******************il.com and we’ll hopefully set some dates for August.
