Speed Indicator Device (SID) Engagement
Bearsted Parish Council would like to thank those residents who took the time to comment on the Ashford Road SID survey.
The Traffic and Transport Committee will be reviewing the feedback at their next meeting on 23rd September. If you wish to learn more about the scheme the committee welcome your attendance.
An update will be published shortly afterwards answering some of the queries raised.
The Village Green Pond
A big thank you to Cllr Smith who waded in today in her wellies to rescue the fish and clear all the rubbish from the pond.
The pond, although empty due to the ongoing dry weather, may not look like a pretty village pond, but is actually healthy in terms of vegetation and biodiversity. Under professional advice and due to the ongoing water shortage. the Parish Council have decided not to fill the pond from the mains water tap.
We would like to remind residents that this pond is NOT suitable for fish, and request that people do not put their unwanted fish into the pond.

Due to a collision at the end of July the main room at Madginford Hall has been closed.
The Hall committee are working with their insurers to arrange the necessary repairs to make the building safe.
This has led to the cancellations of many booking and a delay to the preschool reopening in September.
We will share an update once available and we thank those affected for their patience.
