PARKING IN THE VILLAGE
Please park and drive sensibly when you visit the village, there are now
regular speed checks in the areas and parking checks on all days of the week, including
evenings. Don't risk a £30/£60 fine for the sake of a few minutes walk. The double
yellow lines are there for a reason; to provide sufficient space for pedestrians and
vehicles to coexist in safety and to allow the bus service to reach the village, thank
you.
KEEP YOUR DOORS LOCKED, BACK
AND FRONT
The owner of a house in Upper Combe recently found an intruder in their kitchen, obviously
intent on a thieving expedition. He had entered by the unlocked back door, but on
discovery took to his heels, nothing having been taken. This took place in the evening
with the house occupied. Other reports of such criminal activity are known. Be warned. Keep
your doors locked, even though you are in the house,
ON THEVILLAGE"GREEN"
You want to go to Bath, Chippenham or Corsham, so you jump in the car and set off. Have
you ever thought about reducing your carbon footprint by using the excellent bus service?
This is
particularly an advantage for the lucky ones with a bus pass - won't cost you a bomb in
petrol and car running expenses. Save the hassle of finding a place to park and the
extortionate parking fees in Bath. Try it and see - it's good fun, you see the countryside
and save the planet.
