Alderton Village Newsletter - May 2024

​Note from Editor:
Come on May, time for some sunshine and warmth! With two Bank Holidays this month there are lots of fairs and activities, as well as half term coming up. If you haven’t watched the infamous cheese rolling on Coopers Hill I highly recommend it, but please don’t take part…. I don’t want to write ‘get well soon’ notices for head/limb injuries next month!  Enjoy this month as we approach Summer and get more out and about.

Please don’t forget to check for Gareth’s sheep and lambs in fields (or Holly’s behind Cambridge Square) before letting your dogs off leads. Also see the bluebells on Dumbleton Hill they are particularly stunning this year (but be quick).
