For the year ended 31 March 2022, these documents will be available on reasonable notice by application to the Clerk:

Exciting new addition for the King George V Playing Field in Findern!

Posted on 6th June 2022

Next week, on 13 June 2022, contractors are starting to install a basketball practice area with goal at the King George V Playing Field in Findern.

The contractor aims to complete the project in 5-7 Days. The machinery operating hours will be between the hours of 8am – 6pm and the building area will be fenced off for safety. Anyone visiting the park should keep away from the site; however, there will still be access to the play area, bike track and football field.

Please note. the contractor will need access to the playing field via the gateway off Baxter’s Way, therefore, the Parish Council politely request that this access is left clear of vehicles during the day.

The Parish Council are pleased that the final phase of improvements at the park will soon be completed and this exciting new addition will be available for our young people.
