General Discussion
 
The state of the roads was discussed.  Member of public was particularly unhappy at the number of pot holes, not just in our village but all over the County.  It was explained that all we can do is bring it to the attention of the County Council, which we do, and hope that they will fix it.  Members of public can report it on ‘fix my street’ and this makes a record of report and gives a reference to follow.
The new road sign on Littlefield Lane is appreciated.
