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.

Parish Council Matters
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.

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,
so the obituaries page has been set up.
Please contact the webmaster to add information.
