Chairman Wayne Clark and Clerk Claire Minter met with County Councillor Catherine Baart who has been supportive of having trees planted in the parish. We were delighted to meet new SCC staff member, Robbie Stewart, who has been recruited in a new role as Highways Environmental Officer. One of his main roles is to ensure that he supports the SCC initiative for tree planting by identifying areas on the Highway verges which would be suitable for planting and managing the process. The Parish Council have requested for a few years to plan trees on Pear tree Hill and are appreciative to see four new trees (2 x Genkos and 2 x Silver Birch).
The Parish Council now intend to plant daffodil and crocus bulbs on this area of verge to help brighten it up
