A big thank you to Isobel Stirk and to everyone that attended on Friday 27th April. Isobel delivered a fantastic talk with her true passion for this topic - it was a truly entertaining and educational evening.
We raised £123 for the Institute, which will be used to maintain this great village resource. |

Despite some further improvements to signage and road markings, this junction continues to be hazardous for drivers and pedestrians alike due to its awkward layout and inappropriate speeds on this road. NYCC representative Counc Patrick Mulligan recently provided NYCC's road statistics which showed that Cononley Lane junction came second in Craven for the location with the most severe factor casualties and seventh in the County wide rank.
Do you have any opinion about this juntion ? Please let us know. |

20's Plenty for Farnhill
Helen Law of Farnhill would like to keep the 20's Plenty campaign in Farnhill 'alive' in the hope that given enought support from residents, the village may help convince NYCC that lower speed limits are vital to where perople live. The campaign is focused on reducing the speed limit from 30 mph to 20 mph on the stretch of Main Street from Farnhill Hall to Kildwick Hall. Click here to read more and see what you can do to help.

The Parish Council has recently installed an new Heritage style street lamp to replace the decayed 70's style light
(it is yet to be pained black when the weather permits).
We now have three lights of this type in the village near the canal and we believe it enhances the look of the village.Please let us know what you think?
Would you like the Parish Council to spend money on further lamps of this type as we continue to maintain the village lights? Your comments are valuable to the Parish Council.
