Tuesday 16th June

As you can see the play area is coming along very nicely indeed. Today the swings/bark have been removed and the Timber Trail is being put in place.

Lots of digging going on in prep for the new items. Sadly the soil is not good quality, therefore not ideal for the football pitch I'm afraid.

If any problems with the entrance route Margaret has kindly agreed that Playdale can drive through to gain access via Manor Farm.

Playdale are on schedule and most of the work may well be completed by next week.

I have emailed Peter Underwood (NHDC) and said the site visit might be better sooner than later. I've now suggested this Friday at 10.00am. Await reply.

He wants to also discuss NHDC commemorative plaque and a formal opening event.

Watch this space, more updates to follow.

Recreation Ground Play Area Project

Hi All
I'm pleased to say Playdale are now on site.
On my visit this afternoon they had removed fencing, and were in the process of digging up the safety matting.

As extending 3m outward, they were concerned on the lack of fencing, but informed them of what happened and to use what's available. Added, any gaps the PC will make good when the project is finished.

Hopefully before the grand opening ???? Date to be arranged.

The skips have been ordered and will arrive in the morning. They asked if any soil could be left on site or dispersed around field. Replied NO !!

Equipment wise, the lorries, they are still worried that they won't be able to make it round the footpath corner. Said if push comes to shove may have to use other access, but will have to talk to land owners first.

Will update WREN & NHDC and invite them over. Suggested date/time, Wed 24th, 10.30am

Playdale will be needing water ref cement etc, so can they get from the Pavilion ???
Also would it be possible for them to use the loo as well ???
