PLEASE CARE FOR OUR VERGES!
Now that wetter and colder autumn and winter weather is approaching our Village verges will become soft and more prone to damage.
They can be badly smashed up by being driven over and by being parked on and of course they take months to recover from such damage.
So we ask all local road users to care for our verges as if they were their own grass areas or lawns.
Please also do your best to encourage any contractors or other commercial road users with whom you may deal to take equal care

NEW FOREST NATIONAL PARK LOCAL PLAN REVIEW – CONSULTATION
Following the initial public consultation undertaken in Autumn 2015 on the main issues to be included in the review of the local planning policies for the National Park, the New Forest National Park Authority has now published a draft Local Plan for comment. Responses are invited during an eight week period running from 3 October – 28 November 2016.
The draft Local Plan sets out the planning policies that will guide development in the National Park in the future. It will, once adopted, play a key role in taking forward the two National Park purposes and related socio-economic duty. The draft Local Plan aims to ensure that the New Forest continues to receive the highest level of landscape protection while fostering the economic and social well-being of the 35,000 residents who live within the National Park.
