I used to keep bees when I lived in NE Norfolk some years ago and greatly enjoyed the hobby. I’m keen to do so again up here in Alsop, but I’m concerned that nectar and pollen from our local trees and flora might not be sufficient to sustain a colony year round. Is our area a relative desert for honeybees?I should say that I’m not so much interested in getting loads of honey; just giving the bees a place to thrive and for me to study them.
Grateful for any advice.Anthony CAlsop en le Dale

The Parish Council has received a number of comments about potholes in and around the village. The Parish Council has no powers to deal with these are they are the responsibility of the Highways Authority, Derbyshire County Council. They do respond to problems logged on their website which can be reached here.
If you wish to log an issue and are unable to this site the Parish Clerk can assist you.

Thank you to everyone who braved the early rain and joined us on the Legion’s family bike ride. When the rain dried up, it was perfect riding conditions and we were rewarded at the end with a spectacular double rainbow over Minninglow.
The next ride is scheduled for Sunday 21st July, so get the date in your diary and join us.

Update for Bradbourne & Parwich Heating Oil Club
Oil prices continued to slide on Friday morning, ending the month of May with the largest monthly drop since last November, as trade tensions weigh on investors outlook on the global economy and oil demand.
TIP: Over time water builds up at the bottom of the tank through condensation. To prevent this causing issues, we recommend using a water scavenger which will absorb contaminated water in the tank. Its simple to use, just fix the cord to the tank and drop in the scavenger. For more information please visit the club shop.
Rate: £0.4690 (pence per litre excluding vat [5% for Domestic use])
