Black Bin Cafe dates

The dates for the Black Bin Café given in the December Pen Paper are wrong.  Dates were changed after it had gone to press.

The correct dates are 19th January, 2nd and 16th February, 1st and 15th March but by then the March Pen Paper should be out with correct and additional dates.

Another Coombe St closure

I understand Wessex Water may be back, yet again, for some repair woks in Coombe Street.  Signage and one.network suggest a closure somewhere down near Pen Mill cutting off access from and to Zeals.  Might last until Friday.  If anyone has updated info as the week progresses, please let me know and I'll post on this website.

This will mean that the cafe will only open on dry days through to September and most of the seating will be outside either in the churchyard or the grassy area by the hall.  In…

Footpaths

Since lockdown there has been a big increase in people walking around the village and there have been incidents of people straying off the footpaths onto private land. This has been particularly noticeable on Pen House land off Underhill, including one sighting of people on bikes riding around the lake in the garden.  We would ask everyone to stay on the footpaths, which are well marked, through fields and across land and where there are gates on the path to make sure you shut them behind…

Sycamore Tree reduction

sycamore%20reduction.pdf

After consultations with Somerset Highways it became clear that, for safety reasons, a significant reduction needed to be carried out as per the photo.  This is, at least, better than losing the tree completely and we can hope for some new growth in time.   We have asked for the work to be done as soon as possible, before the nesting…
