Newington History Group - Life in Milton Workhouse


Helen Allinson, a local historian and author, will be talking about life in Milton workhouse at the February 11 meeting of Newington History Group.

The history group meets monthly on the second Thursday at the Methodist church hall in Church Lane, Newington, at 7:30pm focussing on the history of the village and neighbouring ones. New members are welcome and admission for guests is £3.

Temporary Road Closure - Stickfast Lane


Phased closures of Stickfast Lane, Bobbing are planned to start from Monday the 1st of February 2016 for an estimated period of up to 2 weeks.

Stickfast Lane will be closed in sections for its entire length, with no through access at any time during the works.

Access for residents and visitors will be maintained whenever it is safe to do so, but there are likely to be some delays and certain times when this is not possible for safety reasons.

Due to the nature of these works, it will not be possible to re-open the road outside the working hours.

The closures are to enable road widening and resurfacing works to be carried out by Fox (Owmby) Ltd.

The duration of works is advisory, and it is possible works may over-run due to such factors as adverse weather conditions or unforeseen engineering difficulties.

The revised dates may again need to be reviewed if there are still problems with the A249.

The alternative route is via Sheppey Way, Ferry Road, School Lane and Iwade Road (High Oak Hill).
