As part of the planning approval for the new Taylor Wimpey housing development site on Higham Gobion Road, Artist Blacksmith, Kelly Burton, has been chosen to produce a piece of artwork for the entrance to the new estate.

Councillors Paxton and Qureshi and the Clerk attended Arnold Academy on 21st May with Kelly Burton, to engage with children representing Ramsey Manor and Arnold Academy schools, to gather ideas for the artwork. The enthusiasm and creativity of the pupils was a credit to them.

Based on this feedback, the artist has now prepared the proposed final designs and will present them on 15th June 2026, 6.30pm at the Village Hall, Committee Room. Residents are invited to attend.

The incident happened just after 10.30am on the A6 northbound at Barton Cutting just after the junction with Faldo Road.

A silver Vauxhall Astra left the road before going into a ditch and colliding with a tree.

The driver, a man in his 20s, suffered serious injuries. He is currently being treated in hospital.

We are asking anyone who was travelling in the area who saw anything or who may have dashcam footage that could assist us to come forward.

Please report online - https://orlo.uk/Ozht4 - or call 101 quoting reference 133 of 27 May or Operation Kirby.

**BE ALERT TO FIRE RISKS DURING WARM WEATHER**
The extremely hot and dry weather we are experiencing currently has heightened the risk of grass, rubbish and open land fires.

Please do your bit to prevent fires by:

- Not using barbecues in parks and open spaces: Grass will be tinder dry after such hot weather, so can easily catch fire from the heat of a barbecue.
- Not disposing of lit ci******es: always make sure ci******es are fully extinguished before disposing of them in an appropriate bin.
- Disposing of glass properly: always dispose of glass items in an appropriate bin. Glass can cause refraction fires when exposed to direct sunlight.
