Urgent: Road Condition on Eastfield Lane Can someone please provide an update on the current state of Eastfield Lane? The condition of the road has significantly worsened, with a large section of it falling apart. The situation is becoming dangerous, especially with parked cars opposite what is now a large "crater." It's increasingly difficult to avoid, and if not repaired soon, it’s going to cause serious damage to vehicles. I've heard that the issue may be related to the care home workers, but this is further up the lane. This particular section has been deteriorating since August and is now much worse. Please, can the council take immediate action to address this? It's a safety concern for drivers and pedestrians and needs urgent attention.

Who has kindly installed a wooden garden seat 2/3rds of the way up the footpath running parallel to the road below which gives us access to our War Memorial? Do users of that high level footpath know that it only exists because we ‘acquired’ it after the installation of the main gas grid pipeline below our feet. Before that I think we just walked up and down the road with only an occasional vehicle to disturb us (bliss!). However our Villagers from Whitchurch Hill had a field or safe roadside footpath all the way to our joint Memorial (another story!).

It was a pleasure on two recent weekend days to be able to walk down Eastfield Lane, as in the past, with only two local parked cars along its entire length. My memory tells me of late night walks with our first dog, 50+ years ago. I would turn down the glow worm illuminated entrance to the Allotment footpath, slip the dog lead and listen for the sound of claws running towards me - not knowing whether it was a badger or the dog. The badger sett was at the far right hand corner of the present Maze, but sadly destroyed some many years later. When we emerged onto Eastfield Lane we would often be greeted by a solitary Owl sitting wisely on the electrical supply wires or their support and then we would move to lean on the gate leading into the field and watch for the local fox as he returned from his late night drink at the river and then crossed the field and the Lane to return to his den on the higher ground. The silence of the Lane also evoked memories of John Holmes who protested volubly when he thought we had destroyed the only rural lane in his village by installing street lights. He said it won’t be long before there are buses running down the Lane - and he was right! His family had lived in the village for 300 years but he moved away in order to express his discontent.

Many thanks to the Parish council for arranging the proper clearance of the roadside drains throughout the village, important work as we head into the winter to reduce flood risk! I feel compelled to add that I raised all the blocked drains on Hardwick Road and the top of the high street on “fix my street” in June 2023, so I am also rather disappointed at the lack of action by SODC/OCC before now… I’d also like to ask about street sweeping, last year Hardwick road was only swept (partially) three times and twice of those times were at my request. Regular street sweeping, especially in the autumn with all the leaves but also throughout the year, would help prevent the blocked drains. It would be good to get a regular street sweeping schedule back in place (I understand years back it was every two weeks) to improve flood safety in the village. Is that something the PC can help ensure is implemented and carried out?

Someone is tearing down posters advertising village events. We put up eight A4 laminated posters regarding this year's Art & Craft exhibition on Wednesday morning last week: by 8AM on Thursday, at least five of them had been torn down and removed! These are mostly telegraph pole sites around the High Street and Eastfield Lane where we (and others) have been putting posters for many years. On mentioning this to other villagers we found that several people have experienced this problem recently, including one person who found her poster dumped in a nearby waste bin. This is not just some kids walking by and mindlessly pulling them down: this is someone who does not want posters displayed and who is methodically removing them. Does anyone know who is doing this or why? We would like to hear, via this message board please, from anyone who has any comments or ideas to offer about how this can be stopped. It’s hard enough organising an event without this mean-spirited sabotage! By the way, the 2024 Art and Craft exhibition is on the 23rd and 24th November so start creating now! You can see full details at link Thanks for reading and we look forward to hearing what people have to say.

MISSING CAT Dear all, we adopted a cat last weekend and last night he seems to have got out of a 3in opening on the first floor window fanlight. He’s microchipped but the collar and name tag have only just arrived in the post so he’s not wearing them. If you see him, please could you let me know. He’s an adult ginger Tom, quite small and delicate, very shy and skittery. He’s called Bob. I’m not even sure if he knows that’s his name yet. I have photos but can’t post them on here. Thank you! All best, Kate

In the midst of searching for the little monkey, I spoke to neighbours I'd never met before, who were all so kind and helpful - a lovely reminder of the fantastic community we have here in the village. We managed to corral Bob at midnight, and now he's safely back home. I'm sure he’ll be 'on tour' again once he’s settled in, but at least he now knows how to find his way home!

Know that the end is in sight for the construction works at Eastfield House. What is the Parish Councils view of repairing the quality of the road surface. The heavy plant movement plus the constant movement & parking of sub-contractors vehicles has trashed the quality of the surface. If my memory serves me rightly the bottom end of Eastfield Lane was re-surfaced approx 3 years ago. The top end of the Lane was not included within this works package. I have had a discussion with the site manager and he advised that they have no responsibility or requirement to re-surface the lane. Even though they have created the issue. I hope that as part of the Planning agreement SODC gave the Developer a condition to either repair or pay for the repair. Can a member of the Parish Council enquire what is the medium long term solution. As the construction works are coming to an end and the Fit-out works well underway. It would not be great if post completion the Road surface was left in the state of dis-repair it is currently in. Surely this has been accounted for within the Local plan.

Hi Jon, I have followed up with both the Cedar Lodge contractor and OCC Highways and they are in agreement that the contractor will repair any damage to the road and verges caused by construction. This needs to be done once construction is completed which is now planned for March 2025. The contractor actually filmed the condition of the road before they started work and will return it to that state once finished. They have also been doing some repairs as they go along, but it is ongoing and a bit of a mess, I agree. As a resident of Eastfield Lane, I am sure that you are aware that there are actually 4 different significant constructioin projects going on at the moment, not just Cedar Lodge, and now a fifth, the pre-school replacement, has just started, so it is not reasonable that one construction project no matter how large, is responsible for resurfacing the road. The Parish Council has raised the need to resurface Eastfield Lane and parts of Manor Road and Hardwick Road to OCC Highways that they will consider for planned road maintenance in FY25/26.

The road closure start date and duration are currently both unclear. I have complained to SSE and asked for clarification. If anyone finds out what is planned please send a message. I think the five day duration is the maximum that can be applied for and the closure may be shorter. It is a complete closure, not a traffic light controlled delay.

The knock on affect of restricted parking in the High Street is already being felt, especially within the vicinity of the Village Hall. The car park is often used by those wanting to leave their cars somewhere for one reason or another. It is becoming increasing difficult for elderly members of cllubs such as the bridge clu b to get close access to the Hall with number of cars being parked outside.

Hi Chris, I spoke to the Village Hall team about this and they confirmed that whilst parking was a bit tight for the last bridge club meeting, there was no one parking in the Village Hall car park that shouldn't have been or on Manor Road other than local residents. I need to point out that the situation has nothing to do with the planned High Street residents parking scheme which won't be implemented until later in August to make sure that people don't get the wrong idea. The situation was purley down to the continued popularity of the bridge club which should be seen as a good thing!

I read the article in the Bulletin about the village hall events. As a member of the Whitchurch Photographic Society, I would like to comment on the reason given in the article for its closure. Mobile phones do indeed take technically excellent photos but that doesn’t mean that people no longer need the learn about photography. Creating a compelling image is about composition, lighting, mood and many other creative skills. This has been true since artists started putting paint onto canvas. New technology only assists us with the creative process. There is much that can be learnt about the creative process and this where joining a photographic club can help. You don’t need a fancy camera; your phone is fine. I am considering moving to the Thatcham club which has a fresh take on the traditional camera club format. Shame it’s a half drive rather than a 10 minute walk.

It is proposed that the Annual Parish Meeting (APM) on Thursday will start at 7.15 pm and last for just 45 minutes, notwithstanding the fact that the APM’s in 2022 and 2023 each lasted for 1 hour 45 minutes. The Local Government Act 1972 makes it mandatory to hold an APM as an important part of the local democratic process at which electors receive reports from their councilors and local organisations, and have the opportunity to have their say on local issues. It is not in the spirit of the Act to unreasonably time-limit the APM and restrict discussion. It would be possible for those present on Thursday to vote to keep the APM going for as long as they considered necessary, but a better solution would be for the Parish Council planned for 8pm to be postponed now. This would allow the APM to follow its normal course with the usual reports from local organisations and sufficient time for electors to have their say.

Hi Geoff, not sure where you are getting your information from, but this Thursday's Annual Asseumb start at 7pm with drinls and nibbles for a 7:15 pm start in the Village Hall. We estimate it to be finished by 9pm. The Parish Council will be holdoing a brief meeting followig the Assembly to cover critical decisions that need to be made this month. We estimnate the start of the follow on PC meeting will be be at 9pm, not 8pm, but it will depend on when the Annual Assembly is completed. There is no time limit on the Assembly meeting. Everyone on the village is encouraged to attend the meeting to hear what is happpening in the village from a variety of local organisations. The annual Whitchurch Award will be presented at the closure of the annual Assembly.

As mentioned a few months ago, please could other villagers help with taking medical blister packs for recycling to Superdrug in Reading? There has been an overwhelming response to the recycling initiative, such that the cardboard collection box in the phone box on the High Street is now getting full within a week! Although I don't often have other reasons for going into central Reading, I have been taking them to Superdrug in Broad Street, where there is a collection point at the rear of the shop next to the pharmacy counter. If others could also take some when visiting Reading, it would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise I may need to abandon the scheme. Thank you.

Judging by the amount of mats there are, I can only imagine it will be a shave - like last year! 😫 If you see a bald, old, skinny (he is mostly fluff), miserable looking black and white cat in the Swanston field, Eastfield Lane and Hardwick Road area, he is mine. He has just been "groomed". Please let any workmen/builders know he is OK and not ill, lost or had a run in with a lawn mower. Thank you!

Hello Alexa. Thames Water's closure of Hardwick Road near The Mount has been postponed by two months until 22 to 24 April. That info is now on the one.network website (there is a link on our Links page). They seem to have failed to advise nearby residents, who had received letters warning of a closure next week, of the postponement. The separate Thames Water work in the High Street (near the lower narrows), which involves traffic lights and delays, has been postponed twice recently, as our news item mentions, and is now supposed to start on Monday. Hope that helps - Richard Wingfield, News Editor.

I am an occasional user of the toll bridge and notice that sometimes you collect funds for local charities there. I am Fundraising Mgr for Reading Family Aid which is a small charity which provides outings for disadvantaged families in the wider Reading area and organises the huge Toys and Teens Appeal that provides toys and gifts to around 3,000 children who would otherwise receive no Christmas presents. I was wondering if you would consider having a collecting bucket for us on your bridge? We are all volunteers so that almost all the money raised goes directly to putting smiles on children's faces.

Some people may have received a notice from Thames Water yesterday about low water pressure in Pangbourne and parts of Reading. This didn't affect us as out water normally comes from Gatehampton near Goring. As part of this, some residents that have registered as vulnerable to water cuts may have recevied bottled water by mistake from Thames Water. I have 12 bottles of spring water that a resident doesn't need that anyone is welcome to if they want it.

There is an interesting planning application from Pangbourne College Boathouse which might interest Whitchurch residents with a river view towards Shooters Hill. I tried to post the link to the application but sitespider kicked it off as spam

GOING FORWARD BUS SERVICE. Only two people use this bus service, which goes through Whitchurch on a Tuesday. If people do not use it, WE WILL LOSE IT! Time tables are available online and there is a timetable on the Notice Board at the entrance to Manor Road. Enjoy a nice scenic route, into town, meeting new people and having a good chat. Thank you.

I am trying to find new book club members for a U3A (university of the third age) group. We meet once a month on the 4th Monday at 2pm - the venue alternates between Whitchurch on Thames and Goring on Thames. A lift to and from the venues is available. The books are provided free of charge by the library service and are distributed at the meeting. You would be made very welcome with light refreshments. The group is informal and the books are varied but not too challenging. Do come and meet us - if you decide to continue there is a small charge to join the U3A. Please contact me if you would like to come along to the next meeting or would like more information.

We had 'borrowed' from the Modern Artists Gallery entrance - our very heavy boot scraper- possibly taken by a heavyweight lifter on Friday 29th December. It is /was very heavy ! Please return to gallery - it gets very muddy inside. I have not checked the gallery camera in the hope it will be returned soon. Thank you . Otherwise please give directions as to its whereabouts. A reward is offered.

I have a plastic roof on my lean-to conservatory. One of the joints between two of the roofing sheets has developed a leak where they sit on the support beam. Can anyone recommend a specialist or handyman who might effect a repair?

On behalf of our family may I say thank you to you all for your recent support and messages of sympathy. Betty would have been amazed and humbled to see the esteem in which she was held.

Giving Away: 1. Pneumatic door open/closer (with remote control) 2. Wheelchair ramp into the garden (Together or as separates). Our back doors came fitted with a double door remote controlled pneumatic open/close system leading on to a timber wheelchair ramp. All are in great working order. We just don't require them. If you'd like to see it in action come on over. We will be having it removed around mid-Jan and would love it to be of use to someone. Cheers Amelia
