 Allotments update

 As from the 1  April, the Parish Council took
 st
 over  management  of  the  allotments.  There
 will be no changes for the first year, whilst all
 the  various  agreements  are  put  in  place.
 Invoices will be going out shortly to all those
 allotment  holders  who  have  expressed  an
 interest in keeping their allotments. There are
 currently  three  vacant  allotments,  two  of
 which will be divided to make smaller plots.
 By  dividing  them,  we  hope  to  be  able  to
 accommodate  as  many  of  those  on  the
 reservation  list  as  possible.  We  will  be
 contacting those who have been allocated
 one of the new allotments very shortly, once
 they have been measured out. Should you wish to put your name on the list for a
 future allotment, please contact either the Clerk or Cllr Robin Pitcher.
