Village Events and News

The results of the "Best Kept Village" competition 2008
were announced this week and

WE WON !!!
Congratulations to everyone who put such a lot of effort into the project. This, like the Festival, was a true community activity that put us at the top of the "Small Village" category for the first time since 1981

Sadly, we did not beat Weston, winners of the large village category, so the sign stays there.

The Parish Council are your elected representatives.
They meet on the First Tuesday of each Month and a period is set aside at each meeting when members of the
public can make comments, requests, or seek information from the Council, or simply see democracy in action.

The Stafford Local Development Plan has been published for discussion. For Information Click here

6 Smithy Croft. The planning officers finally agreed with the Parish Council, the Neighbourhood, the Borough Council
Development Committee and four Government Inspectors and rejected this attempt to put a house in half a back garden.
So now we have
appeal No 5. Residents have been informed that this will be a Public Enquiry.
There are issues of flooding, despoilment of the conservation area
, houses adversely affected and the area devalued.
All villagers need to take an interest in this, as it could set damaging precedents!

We feel the time has come to recognise the contributions of those villages who have passed away,
