This week’s Ashbourne News Telegraph is available in the Sycamore Shop or on-line. Local interest articles include:
- p. 4 £90,000 grants could make village hall dream a reality is an article on the recent grants towards the Memorial Hall redevelopment project, including the Peak Park Sustainable Development Grant, that mean we are now well within £100,000 of reaching our £868,000 target. One of the photos taken in the pub is in the paper and another can be seen on the paper’s website.
- p. 11 An Alsop barn burst into flames on Crosslow Lane last Friday as the high temperatures caused the hay stored there to ignite. Firefighters from Ashbourne and Buxton attended.
- p.20 & 21 A Barrowload of Fun at Village Wakes is a two page spread on Parwich Wakes 2009. With photos from the Saturday, the Hill Race and a special focus on the Wheelbarrow Race, it is well worth looking at (click on the image below and go p.20 to see the photos published in the paper).
