Haslingfield’s ancient clunch pit, used in medieval times for building materials for some of the colleges as well as All Saints Church, is now a rare chalk grassland rich in wildflowers, including at least four species of orchid. Join this guided walk, led by Clive Blower, which is part of the Cambridge Nature Festival (https://www.cambridgeppf.org/Event/cambridge-nature-festival) to learn more of the history of this special area and how to identify the orchids.
The Parish Council is pleased to report that we are now moving into the early stages of the build process.
We now need your help!
Would you like to have an input to the design and layout of the skatepark? Are there things you would like to see, or be incorporated within the design? Then now is your chance to get involved!
There will be a Design and Consultation session on Thursday 25th May 4-7pm in the Methodist Church. Members from the Parish Council and building contractors, Betongpark, will be there to share the current draft plans for the layout out (see image attached) and answer any questions you may have on details for the build.
The new skate park will be a huge asset to the community for many generations to come, so it’s very important to the Parish Council that we have an area that caters for all ages, abilities and will stand the test of time, so we’d really love to have your input.
