MATTERS ARISING. CHURCHYARD: Mr K Uglow told the
members present that it was nuance for Worstead Farms to have the sheep in
the churchyard and 2 died this year. This could be due to unknown weed
growing in the churchyard. Mr.
K Uglow proposed to take the fences away, cut all the grass, keep it cut
through the season and no more sheep; this was seconded by Mr. J Parker. The
wooden gateposts will be replaced. A new gate will be discussed at the Annual
Parish Meeting in April so the public can have a say, because it will cost. 3
Estimates will be required at this meeting. A
letter to Parish Church Council about decisions taken. |
