Following a recent post, the Parish Council kindly asks that residents do not place any unwanted childrens’ items (or other) in the telephone box at the end of Beacon View Road (or Milford Road). Whilst this idea comes from a good place and is well intentioned unfortunately this will only encourage fly tipping. The telephone box must be left for its purposes that of enabling emergency phone calls.

If a resident would like to turn the phone box into a community project the Parish Council will be very pleased to hear from you. Please contact the Parish Council via the clerk: elsteadpc.clerk@gmail.com with your idea and details on how it will be managed. Phone boxes can be adopted for £1.

Please can anyone who has placed any items in the phone box kindly remove them by the end of the day – we thank you for your understanding.
