SANGS Boardwalks
Village News

Work on the new boardwalk at Weyburn underway.

One of the conditions on the new development at the former Weyburn Works site was for a SANGS - Suitable Alternative Natural Green Space. A SANGS is to encourage people to walk, with their dogs, away from some of the commons, where there are rare ground nesting birds. The SANGS is situated between the village and the Weyburn site, and should be ready for the public to access within a couple of months - as it is a condition that the SANGS is ready before any of the houses are occupied. As part of this work, Footpath 61 which runs from the Shackleford Road, through the new development and joins up with the Burford Lodge Recreation Ground, and Lower Ham Lane, will also be improved.

The Train has a name!

The new train at Thursday Road rec finally has a nameplate. Pupils at St James Primary School in current yr 3 were asked to come up with some names for the new train after it was installed and the wining name was 'The Elstead Express"! Residents can now seen the new name in blue livery (to match the wheels) on the engine. A couple of modifications have also been made to make the train as robust as possible The PC is delighted that children have enjoyed playing on it since it was installed. It's certainly been a popular addition.
