In amongst the bad news the Parish Council is pleased to report that a new tree has been planted in Courtfield Close. This replaces the Coronation Tree which had to be felled last year.
Given the current situation we had to cancel the scheduled Tree Planting Event on Mon 23rd March.
Many thanks to
- Cllr Alan Cook for polishing his spade and planting the tree
- two residents of Courtfield Close who have volunteered to "adopt" the tree and will look after the tree in it's early years.
One of the original residents of Courtfield Close contacted us to ask for something to be planted with the new tree - a memento of the original Coronation Tree planting ceremony!
In the words of a Courtfield Close resident "It is perhaps fitting that we are planting a tree with view of looking ahead to good times when we are in such challenging times at present."
