**NOTICES**

 

From Parish Councillor Stuart Bridge: 

Would villagers please report any accidents that they see at the Eastwell crossroads on Scalford Road at Cross Roads Farm to Parish Councillor Stuart Bridge who is trying

 trying to get Give Way signage on the approach to the crossroads from the Waltham-on-the-Wolds direction changed to a STOP sign.
So far, LCC Highways have refused on the basis that the accident records do not justify the change.

(If you wish to report an accident, please send it to Stuart via email: 

stuart@the stackyard.co.uk OR call him on: 07971 483050)
