A residents parking scheme has been in operation for some time now and the Parish Council would like to know if is working. As a result of the scheme the Mill Yard started to charge for parking there. There is still time to complete the survey about the residents parking scheme. Please express your views through the survey.
Many residents have been using the cut-through between Crag View and Abbey Square via the Abbey grounds for a long time - some for as long as 50 years. This means it might be eligible to become a protected Right of Way. If you would like to support this application please email the Parish Clerk.
For more information about Rights of Way. You can find out some more information here.
