Steven Suggitt, the contractor who has been mowing the main area at no charge to the village, will be giving the Green its final cut of the year in two to three weeks time. If the Green working party had to pay it would be in the region of £500 per time but he gets no benefit from this other than our gratitude.
Stuart Barker has agreed to mow the smaller areas to tidy up the balance of the Green. This will happen sometime between now and Christmas, time and weather permitting and is being paid for by the Parish Council.
A survey of the trees around Ottomer Pond (by the children's play area) is to take place with a view to letting in more light and also allowing for the pond to be renovated. The pond work will depend onbeing able to finance this work although there has already been a generous offer of a free machine to remove the silt, etc.
A general survey of all the trees on the Green to check on their safety is due to be completed shortly.
