Can You Help Accommodate 7 Horses?

A Pilsdon resident, Kelly Kimi is reaching out to neighouring villages with the following request:

“Hi everyone,
I’m looking for grazing for my small herd of 7 horses. Most are small ponies and live on fresh air, so I don’t need a huge field. 4-5 acres would suit us, although we have had much larger fields too.

Does anyone knows of anywhere nearby ?

I am tidy, knowledgeable, kind and committed to looking after my horse family. I have good references too.

Thanking people in advance, I can be reached by email on: kelimac_2000@yahoo.com.”

Did you receive some Lego this Christmas?

Telephone Box Book Exchange Update #3

Once again the village is indebted to Chris Edgerley and his helpers who are restoring the historic phone box in the centre of the village.


They are doing a wonderful job and it will become a great library and book exchange for the use of all residents. Malcolm Heaver will make a purpose built shelving system using all his carpentry skills.

Our again sincere thanks to all the people who have brought this important landmark back to life.

Wendy Shields will manage the library on an ongoing basis.
