Eric Andrews

Some of us gathered to remember the life of Eric Andrews last night, a long term resident and contributor to the village. He was remembered as a gentle man, quiet and knowledgeable. He used to take the CAT bus to a social club in Wincanton, and go onwards to  Yeovil. The person who ran the group in Yeovil sent a card. I'll let you read it for…

Monarch Way Oak

I thought it would be sensible to bring everyone up to date on the accounts for the new oak tree.

Total money collected                        £468

Cost of tree and professional planting  £328

Money left over                                  £140

I hope that Liz Newton can source fencing to protect the tree within our resources and we will erect a small plaque with the remainder.

Again, thanks to all who supported the project with their generous…
