April Parish Council Meeting
Councillors welcomed Peter Leatherdale who is both a resident and member of
the Speedwatch Group. Peter proposed a plan to lower the speed limit within
Briantspuddle from 30mph to 20 mph. The plan was received well and will be
discussed further at the May meeting.

Councillors were informed that the Appeal against the Planning Refusal for Battle
Farm had been determined by the Inspector. The Appeal was dismissed.
It was noted that this is the final meeting of the Civic Year and also prior to the
upcoming Parish and Town Council elections. The next meeting will take place on
May 15 due to the elections timetable when a new Parish Council will be
th
elected along with Chair and Vice Chair.

2025 Calendar
This year’s calendar has been a big success and
we are hoping to repeat this for the 2025 calendar.
Following suggestions received at the AGM, we
have decided that the theme will be ‘Animals and Pets of the Parish’. The entries
should be in the form of a photograph, drawing or painting and we would
welcome entries from all ages. The submissions should be in a landscape format; it
would be lovely if they also reflected one of the four seasons, but this is not
essential. Digital copies of photographs would be preferred but printed copies
would also be acceptable. Any pieces that need to be copied to make high
resolution digital files for printing will be returned to you afterwards.
All entries should be submitted by 1 August 2024 and if we receive more than are
st
needed for the calendar then we will ask our customers to vote for their favourite
picture.
To register your entry, or if you have any queries, please contact the shop on
01929 472000 or briantspuddle.shop@gmail.com
We look forward to receiving your entries.

Saturday Opening
Saturday opening. We are trialling extending the opening hours for the shop on
Saturdays from 9am – 4pm. So far, this has been quite well supported, mostly by
passing visitors.
