Green Bank Closed

Green Bank is closed to both road traffic and pedestrians. A tree has been brought down by Friday afternoon’s storm and it is completely blocking the road. There are no “Road Closed” signs at either end of the road as of  20:00 Friday night but traffic will have to divert around  Rectory Lane.

Shropshire Council has been out to look at the blockage and they are arranging for people with chain saws to come and remove it but it looks like it’s going to be blocked at least until in the morning.

Thanks to Bruce for highlighting this please pass on to people you know.

We really do need to know y’know!

Open Forum Number 2!

After a promising afternoon session which yielded a good discussion and a number of ideas for the Neighbourhood Plan the evening session was subdued as the dark windy evening deterred people from going out. For those who did turn out the experts from Apt were on hand to answer questions and some interesting ideas have made it into the mix. A big thank you to all who came.

Next week sees the final open forum of this series at Norton In Hales.

Moreton Say Hosts Open Forum Number One!

Very good night at Moreton Say last night for the first of the Neighbourhood Plan open forums. During the evening between fifteen and twenty people enjoyed tea, coffee and cake before a quick briefing from Lawrence of Apt then one to one Q & A.

There were large maps covering landscape, amenity space, listed buildings and the Parish Profile. This gave people lots to discuss.

This afternoon at 2:00 and tonight at 8:00 it’s the turn of Adderley. Apt will be there again together with Renee from the Community Charity. There’s an update on where we are and all of the maps plus, at the evening event, a chance to talk to the experts about the Neighbourhood Plan.

We look forwards to seeing you and hearing your thoughts and opinions. don’t forget, bring a friend or a neighbour especially if they haven’t been to one before!

Carols Round The Village

Despite the rain this year’s group of carollers walked and sang from the Village Hall, via Adderley Barns, round the village and back to the Village Hall for mince pies and mulled wine. In the process they raised an incredible £360!!

An outstanding achievement. A huge thank you to people who played musical instruments, those who sang, those who provided food and drink and of course, those who gave generously.

The money raised will go to Hope House Children’s Hospice.
