A well-earned Retirement!

The time has come for our Lengthsman Malcolm to retire after nine years. Malcolm was one of our first lengthsmen to take up the post and has provided a sterling service to the community and always found time to stop for a cheerful chat. He has willinging applied his enviable engineering skills to much of the work needed around the village, including production of Headcon’s beacon. He will continue with his metalworking projects as time allows. Malcolm will be very much missed, not just by his fellow lengthsmen and the Parish Council as a whole, but also by everyone in the community. We wish him a long and happy retirement.
