MESSAGE FROM HOPTON COURT

Orbit and Beardy Folk Festival at Hopton Court - Update for Hopton Wafers residents

As I am sure you are aware, we have two festivals planned during June at Hopton Court โ€“ Orbit and Beardy Folk.
We wanted to share an update to confirm that the organisers are taking measures to divert and guide festival traffic away from the village.
On the first day of Beardy Folk, which is expected to be the busiest, there will also be someone positioned in the village to redirect any drivers who try to come through.
I do understand that this may not prevent every vehicle from coming through the village, but I hope these extra steps will help reduce disruption and make things a little easier for residents.
Thank you, as always, for your patience and understanding - it is very much appreciated.
