Village Walks Leaflet
Mike Gee has kindly offered to undertake a project to complement the existing
walks leaflets, using a combination of waymarking, notice boards and modern
technology to make the walks as available to all as possible. This led to discussion
on whether a village information board should be located opposite the play park
as many visitors start their walks from this point. However, this could be seen as
encouraging parking in an area that can be congested. Further discussion will be
held, and consideration given to an additional board on Souls Moor.

Wild Woodbury

At this point, the management of the allotments has not yet been passed to the
Parish Council and we await a copy of the proposed licence for review. Dorset
Wildlife Trust are setting up a Community Liaison Group and Cllr Robin Pitcher will
act as the Parish Council’s representative. It is understood that the Group will
meet every three months on the Court Green site. One barn has been cleared
and will have the electrics sorted to enable meetings to be held there.

Queen’s Platinum Jubilee

To facilitate the village street party on
Saturday 4 June, as application is being
th
submitted to close the section of West Street
from Manor Farm Road to North Street from
mid-day until early evening. Residents
affected by this closure have been notified.
Dorset Wildlife Trust have very kindly agreed to
allow parking on their site during the various
events over the weekend. Those residents
who do not have off road parking in the area
of the street party will be asked to move their
vehicles to Court Farm for the afternoon.
It is hoped that Commemorative Mugs will be purchased for all children under the
age of 16 living in the parish. If you live in the parish and have children that fit this
category, please contact the Clerk by email in order to reserve a mug. There may
also be some mugs available to purchase.
