MILLENNIUM GARDEN TRUST: I am sure that many of us walk through the garden, sometimes as an alternative route along the High Street when going in that direction.

Although this year’s AGM has taken place anyone still wishing to join or take part in the upkeep of this great amenity, or to simply to find out more should contact Sheila McNeill on 01273 832756.
