Wildflowers in Witchell Meadow The grounds team have laid some wildflower seeds to create a small wildflower meadow. The wildflower seeds contain annuals and perennials so we will see some colour within the first year, with the perennials providing more colour from year two onwards. The seeds have been specially selected to increase floral diversity and attract pollinators. If this wildflower meadow is successful, the Council will revisit the idea to add more wildflower meadows along verges in the Village which requires a cultivation licence from Buckinghamshire Council.
Ashbrook Path The Council recently installed a new path at Ashbrook open space. The path starts at the entry gate and runs along the length of the playpark, down to the exercise equipment. This should make access to the playpark much easier for wheelchairs and buggies.
