Our thanks to Dom and Matt who have just gritted the hill for us. There is quite a bit of run off in places so take it carefully as some may have been washed away and will leave ice.
Gritting Update – 4th January 2022
Unfortunately we don’t have a driver who is free to go out tonight to grit the hill. The Primary routes are being done twice and temps will be low but we cannot manage it. If there any others out there who have a vehicle with a tow bar we’d really welcome them to help out.
Please contact the Parish Clerk, Joan Banks [email protected]

Highways tell me that they’re treating the Secondary Routes this afternoon – remember that they only go up to the bus stop- so the Team will not be going out tonight. There’s a snow and ice warning out until 11am on Friday. Anne Mayes

Immense gratitude to Jarrod and Andy who’ve ventured out in this freezing weather to grit the hill. We’re forecast a deep frost so please take it very carefully and bear in mind that, in places, the run off is such that there will be no grit left. Anne Mayes
