You may notice some strange yellow markings appearing around the village. After numerous complaints to the Parish Council your councillors have taken on the ‘delightful task’ of going around the village and footpaths and will mark/highlight dog poo!

The paint is biodegradable and environmentally friendly and the point of marking it is to raise awareness as to how many dog owners are leaving poo around the village, be that on paths, driveways, in front gardens/verges, on public footpaths and in fields containing livestock. In the past when the village was smaller and there were less dogs it might not have been an issue but the village has grown in the last decade and since lock down there are a lot more dogs!

Please can dog owners pick up after their dogs and put the waste in the numerous bins located around the village. Many thanks!
