If you have tried to drive along Monsdale Lane recently, you will have seen it has become somewhat overgrown.
The Parish Council have been in contact with Highways (Derbyshire County Council), who have now scheduled the Monsdale Lane hedgerows to receive a trim some time this autumn.


Whilst a little trim may be necessary to allow a very occasional vehicle to access the lane, I am hoping that Monsdale Lane will continue to be an almost-traffic-free route where (grand)children, pushchairs and dogs (although I haven’t got one) can wander freely in this haven of peace without having to worry about traffic. So a little trim is OK, but not enough to encourage more vehicles to start using the route, please!
