Paul Miller from the National Trust gave a presentation at the March Parish Council meeting about the “Protect our Roots” project at the Ashridge Estate summarising information boards for events which took place in Little Gaddesden, Aldbury and Berkhamsted which are now available for downloading.

The parish council is responsible for maintaining, and ensuring the safety of, the equipment on the Spencer Holland Recreation Ground. It has recently replaced two swing seats and chains, and resurfaced the area under the climbing frame. The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents has just given both the play area and sports ground clean bills of health following its annual inspection.

Members of the parish council often report problems such as fly-tipping, potholes in roads, fallen trees on footpaths and overflowing waste bins. Actually this can be done directly by any member of the public. Our Useful Links contain information on how to do this – they are simple processes and can lead to a speedier resolution than first trying to contact a council member.

The next meeting to be held will be at 7.30pm on Thursday 19th July 2019 in the Potten End Church Rooms. All meetings include an opportunity for the general public to contribute.  The council aims to have minutes posted on this website within seven days of each meeting.

Hertfordshire County Council have announced that part of The Common (marked in red on the map) will be closed on 11 July for tree felling, along with a 520 metre section of the Nettleden Road north west of the village (not shown on this map).
If you have any queries about these works or the temporary road closures, please contact Colin Cromar tel.01379 676 462 at TMO Highways or Joanne Robinson tel.0300 123 4047 at Hertfordshire County Council
