FOUR ELMS PLAYGROUND UPDATE Thank you for your patience – “we” (our fabulous caretaker actually) is watering the new turf daily and hopes to have the new safety surface down next week. Typical weather – just when we need some rain, it’s a heatwave 😉 Thanks to Four Elms Primary school for letting us use their water!
WWI event
Do come to a concert in Hever Church on Saturday 10 November to mark the momentous year that was 1918. It was the end of World War I and the beginning of votes for women….. meanwhile flu took its toll, and the housewives of Hever carried on making jam!
The performers are all local and much of the material has a local connection. Tickets are £7.50 on the door or from Joanna Wade 07958 919631.
There are also small exhibitions about the villages in wartime in all three churches in the Benefice – researched by the Eden Valley Museum and sponsored by the Hever Charity. These will run until the end of the year.
The new playground looks great, shame the field has now been ruined by the vehicles driving straight across the field rather than around the edges. There are massive ruts from the wheels diagonally straight across the field. Will not be long before one of the school kids or a member of the public using the field will brake an ankle.
The new playground looks great however rather than drive around the edge of the field the workers who constructed the playground have driven straight across it. The field is now ruined with huge tyre marks and ruts. It will not be long before a member of the public or one of the local school children will brake an ankle or worse. The field needs to be levelled with a heavy roller at the very least. What is the council’s plan for repairing the field and making it safe?
