New Gallery

I was out taking photos to brighten up the website for Spring this week.

It was a great couple of hours in a lovely village and I thought I’d create a gallery for some of the images in case anyone else wanted to see them. See if you can guess where they were taken !

(Apologies for Max – I seem to have a dog that likes the camera !)

At one point I was trying to take this picture :-

But Max insisted on bouncing up and down in front of me as I tried to take it :-

The gallery can be seen off the main menu or here.

Village Sign

IMG_9212c
At last Hankerton has 3 new very smart village signs with art work above the name showing our lovely church. It has taken over 2 years to source and erect the signs having first been suggested by an anonymous benefactor to buy one sign as a gift to the village. The PC decided that purchasing the other two signs would complete the set and enhance the village image and would also commemorate the Queens Diamond Jubilee 2012.

The sign on Cloatley Road has always had a flower planter beneath it, wouldn’t it be nice if the other 2 signs also had planters?

Any volunteers?

Thank you,
Chairman HPC
