SKIPS
Skips for the use of Barford residents were
supplied to coincide with the village fete. The
Parish Council will be reviewing the future
provision of skips in the light of a decision on
where liability falls in the event that
contaminants are found in skips.
PLAY AREA
An order will be placed to top up the bark in the
play area. The Burnbake Trust are being asked
again to visit once a month to remove litter and
weeds and thistles.
PARISH COUNCIL MEETING
At the meeting on 23 May the Chairman and Vice
Chairman were re-elected. The next meeting will
be held on 20 July in the Community Room in the
school starting at 7pm. Please note that the
minutes of meetings are now available on our web
site www.barford.net
FISHING
Arrangements are in place for fishing upstream of
the bridge opposite the entrance to Dairy Rd. The
rules have been displayed. A 2-hour tuition
session has been arranged for Wednesday 29 June
at 6pm. Meet on the bridge. Tuition will be given
by Mr Slader from the Salisbury Angling club. The
tuition will be free of charge for participants.
LYCH GATE
Anyone wishing to have a name added to the brass
remembrance plaque inside the gate should contact
any Parish Councillor (see list of names and
contact numbers on the notice board). There will
be no dedication ceremony.
TRAFFIC PRIORITY SYSTEM
The traffic priority system outside the school
will be made permanent during the school summer
holidays. The road will be narrowed and the
signage improved. Details are still awaited. I
have been told that the road will be closed while
the work is being done.
HOLM OAK IN MOUNT LANE
The owner has appealed against the decision to
maintain the preservation order. The outcome is
awaited.
DAIRY ROAD BUS SHELTER
The Parish Council wishes the shelter to be
repainted without murals and have asked the youth
workers who run the youth club to arrange this
with the youngsters.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
The Raglan Housing continue to negotiate with the
owners of the site in Catherine Ford Rd in Dinton
and with the Wilton Estate about a possible
development of the field above the Alabare in
Barford. No details of the latter are yet
available.
SHAFTESBURY ROAD
The question of signs warning of a concealed
entrance to Heath Farm Park has been raised with
the Integrated Transport Team. A response is
awaited.
