Chairman’s Letter

I am sure everyone will have noticed the improvement in the tidiness of our two villages thanks to the efforts of our Community Orderly, Harold With. It would be nice to think that in the near future we could enter the Best Kept Village competition. With that in mind it would be very helpful if residents could keep tidy any walls or hedges alongside the road bordering their property.

With this newsletter you should also receive a Parish Plan Newsletter. Please take the time to read it, as it will undoubtedly have an influence on future developments in the villages.

As you may have seen we have a problem with moles on Tiverton village green. I have set a trap but every time I check it has been triggered by a stone! It seems the mole is pushing a stone ahead of himself and therefore not getting caught. Clever or what!

Village Hall Notes

The Drop in Coffee Mornings have run successfully for a trial period of six months. Even with the offer of internet/computer traning the support has been less than we had hoped for, so the event has been discontinued for the time being.

Our faithful cooker has finally come to the end of its days and we are looking for a replacement. Can any one help us out with an electric cooker in good working order? Offers to Steve Armitage 732167 or steve@tiverton-cheshire.org.uk

The Sandstone News, which those in Tiverton will probably have seen by now, is a new, co-operative venture between the five Village Halls along the Peckforton Ridge. The Halls, including Tiverton, are seeking to build on each other’s strengths and so promote a more diverse range of community activities in our village halls.
