Just a reminder: to please drive slowly around our village, there have been a few cats killed in Station Road over the last few months which is very distressing for the owners, and luckily it has not been a child. Also the top of Heathfield Gardens over the last few months has seen a couple of car accidents. It is difficult to see clearly when pulling out and many drivers forget to cancel indicators when pulling off the A21 so this causes confusion. Please take extra care when driving round our village.
