The Fairland

At the April town council meeting it was learnt that the town council had been awarded a grant by Norfolk County Council to go towards enhancement work which is to be carried out on the Fairland. The County Council will be working on the design with the Town Council before work can begin.

Town councillors have suggested that a bus shelter could be built on the Fairland to commemorate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.

Please let the council know what you think of this idea and of any other ideas you may have to commemorate the Jubilee. You may leave your ideas on the 'Your Comments' page.

Work in the Cemetery

The Community payback team has made a big difference in the old cemetery but there is still more work to do.

Mr Ramm will be working in the churchyard straightening some of the gravestones. This is in addition to the clearing work that is ongoing.

Flooding

The Council is working with residents of Mill Corner/Seamere Road to try and solve the flooding problems in the area. If you would like to join the working party being set up to take this issue forward or have any photo’s of flooding in the Mill Corner/Seamere Road/Hall Lane areas of the town that you would be prepared to lend the Town Council, please contact the Clerk.
