Marksbury Residents do you want a Neighbourhood Watch Scheme?

Bences Garage Junction A39

Grant application form MPC September 2018

Our past Chairman , Peter Harding, has been awarded the Royal Bath & West Society Long Service Award.

The awards are made each year at the opening ceremony of the show. They recognise the long standing hard work of those  who have been in the agricultural or farming sector for over forty years.

Peter Harding  currently works at Manor Farm, Corston.  After leaving school Peter was an enthusiastic YFC member, receiving a YFC scholarship to broaden his farming knowledge. In total Peter has worked in agriculture for almost 50 years. He has also served as parish council member, later chairman. Further service was given as committee member and chairman of Marksbury village hall. In these two roles Peter has represented agriculture to the community.

The winners receive an engraved glass tankard and are made honorary members of the society. The award was presented by the society President, Mary Prior.

If you are considering making a planning application, it would  be really  helpful if you could contact the Parish Council about it, so that as fully informed as possible a decision, the Parish Council,  as a consultee, can be made.

Many thanks.
