Work on the new playground continues. Groundworks on schedule to complete this week. Wetpour is laid next week. Getting close 😁😁 Wouldn't have been possible without CiL funding from Babergh . Keep a watch out for the opening date!!

Fantastic news - The Parish Council, as sole trustees of the playing field, are delighted to announce that they have been awarded a grant of over £110,000 from Babergh District Council and other organisations to replace the old play area equipment. The equipment we are proposing to install will enhance the recreational opportunities for children and families in our neighbourhood, creating a safe and enjoyable space for outdoor activities for all ages. The new play area will also feature equipment designed to accommodate children with disabilities, including sensory play elements, accessible swings, and ground-level activities that promote engagement and interaction. The play area will also include wheelchair access. Hopefully work will start in January 2026.

Found the advert from StarPubs advertising the Wildman today then compared it to the streetview of it on Google - BIG difference. No news from Starpubs despite enquiring several times
