We are looking for an enthusiastic volunteer to help us preserve and maintain our footpaths (the ones across fields, not the ones alongside roads) to assume the grand title of “Parish Path Warden”. This vital roll of bringing to the Council’s attention any difficulties or problems so that they can be fixed will ensure that visitors and ourselves can ‘get the most’ out of our beautiful countryside.
