Ringers visiting on Wednesday 29 this week to ring a Quarter Peal (York Surprise).  A Quarter Peal usually takes approx. 45 minutes and they will start at around 7.15pm. 

Due to roadworks/blocked access Biffa were unable to collect all of the green bins on the above from The Jetties yesterday. They will return to collect the bins as soon as possible. Please leave them out.

Due to roadworks/road closure Biffa were unable to collect the grey bins on Glebe Road, North Luffenham last week. They tried again on Saturday but were still unable to collect them. As the road is scheduled to be closed until 17 March 2023, we are anticipating that there may be problems with the black and green bin collections. Biffa have a smaller vehicle that should be able to access Glebe Road to collect all the bins but this may not be available until Thursday 9 March 2023.

Please leave bins out until they have been collected.

The Woodland Walk has been extended with fencing along the inside of the hedge adjacent to the hedge next to the Edith Weston Rd.. The exit is by a gate at the top of Pinfold Lane near the junction with Edith Weston Rd..

Please pick up after your dog and do not let your dog loose on the farmland.

A few weeks ago the bells were inspected to make sure all was safe and were rung recently. Apparently a few people were concerned that all was not well. It is pleasing to report that parish life has continued on as normal.

So, please just enjoy and don’t be alarmed when the bells are rung again on Tuesday 21^st February between 7.30pm – 9.00pm.

St. George’s Barracks has asked that the public information leaflet on dog walking on Ministry of Defence land be posted: please download or click on the link below.

Please also note the information on the red flag, which when flying, means there is no public access to the site. In the future the barracks is making sure that the red flag is flying only when there is military activity.

The Recycling Facility can be accessed from Morcott while Glebe Road at the Pilton Cross Roads is closed to traffic from North Luffenham. When the work on replacing the water pipes moves to the Recycling Centre this will reverse and access will be from the North Luffenham.

As you may have realised the Carol Service in the church is on the 22nd December and not, unless there has been a fundamental change in the laws of physics, on the 22nd November. It has been corrected on the website.

The North Luffenham Carol Service will take place in the Church on Thursday 22nd December at 6.00 pm.

Please do come to the village carol service in the church; due to an irreparable breakdown of heating in the church it was advertised in the Benefice Magazine as taking place on The Oval. However, there isn’t much heating on The Oval either and the church would protect from the elements.

There will be a warm welcome, dress up warmly, sing lustily and celebrate with words and music the birth of Jesus!
