Come and stock up on your plants at the sale on Saturday 8th September 10am-2pm.  Takes place at Bartlett’s Farm Shop where there will be refreshments and produce for sale as usual.  It’s all in aid of the Gittisham Vale and Heathfield defibrillator.

Reminder that the road past The Forge will be closed for work by Western Power Distribution from 28th-31st August.  Diversion in place via Hayne Lane.

A parish councillor speaks: as we start the school summer holidays please could drivers slow down through the village. 20 IS PLENTY. The parish council has started to look into speed limits through the village, particularly with the increase in traffic from The Pig’s staff, clients and deliveries. We have asked The Pig to remind their people to slow down but village residents need to set a good example. 20 IS PLENTY where our village children are walking or cycling to the park or to meet friends. If you have any particular concerns the Parish Council is happy to hear from you. We surely all want our children to enjoy this incredible summer, so let’s all do our bit to make it a safe one on the roads.
