As many of you may have noticed the village sign was sadly damaged in bad weather last year. It is currently being looked after by the Parish Council. Suppliers for renovating or renewing the sign are currently being sourced. Due to the unique nature of these signs this can take time and the pandemic has slowed the process somewhat.
