The resurfacing of the main route through the village has been causing problems this week, especially for careworkers attending some of our more elderly residents. The good news is that this necessary work has now been completed and Fore Street has been restored to its former glory! The road had suffered many pot holes and damage due to roadworks over the past few years, with some really dangerous patches making walking as well as driving dangerous! Hopefully all this is in the past now with a new surface in place, but as some wag said to me this week, I wonder how long before someone digs it up again, oh no don’t even think about it!!.                                                                                                Â
