You will soon see changes taking place on The Parade, Landsdowne Road.We have been in talks with the landlord to improve the area.

We are pleased after some hard work that Bayston Hill Parish Council have received funding from the ERDF*. There will be new benches, cycle rack and a noticeboard as well as some tree works, pavement repairs and a deep clean. You will have noticed that the willow tree is causing significant damage to the pavement making sections a hazard to pedestrians. Although we will be removing this tree to prevent further accidents, we are committed to a tree planting scheme this Autumn to more than replace the benefits of this tree to the environment. We will also be looking at placing trees in pots there so they can be easily managed.

*The Welcome Back Fund (Councils across England are to share£56m of ERDF funding to support the return to high streets safelyand help build back better from the pandemic)

Cllr. Mark Underwood, Chairman of Bayston Hill Parish Council writes :-

On behalf of the Bayston Hill Parish Council I would like to extend a very warm welcome to Julie Hodgkiss who has taken up the position of Clerk/RFO to the Parish Council from 4th January 2022. Julie brings a wealth of experience to the role and we look forward to working with her for the benefit of the Bayston Hill Parish and to provide the support that Julie will need. I would also like to offer a sincere thanks to Shaun Jones who has been our Locum Clerk/RFO for the last 18 months.
