POST BOX: The post box on the village green (junction of Sutton Lane and Station Road) is now operational! Although in situ since before Christmas the box has been sealed and unable to receive letters since its installation. Enquiries from Parish Council, District Council and many villagers fell on deaf ears. Various unbelievable excuses over a few months from the operators did not help. At last the matter has been put right and It is hoped the new box will now be used by villagers and be an asset to the community.
