Therefore it is with regret that access through the Estate remains withdrawn until the following Monday, 20th April by which time we will have completed the works and the road will be safe to use once more.

Little Rose Pub
A Race night in aid of McMillan Cancer Charity is being held at the Little Rose Pub this Saturday 11th April. The first race is at 8pm and you can place bets of 50p on any horse. As it’s video racing, then there’s no need to worry about the horse’s form, jockey, trainer or anything else as it’s mostly pot luck.
All money raised will go to McMillan Cancer Charity.
