Adderbury History Association – 15 September

Dr Barrie Trinder will give a talk in the Institute, starting at 7.30 pm on The Village Carrier.  Dr Trinder is a local historian and author of many books about Banbury and will explore the carrier’s crucial role in Adderbury in days gone by.  Long before the railways, the village carrier was the only way ordinary villagers could send or receive goods from the outside world—via Banbury.  Visitors welcome at £5.00.

Repair of Wall along Longwall Footpath

On 4 June work will be starting to repair the wall along the Longwall footpath which borders with Adderbury Lakes. The footpath will remain open during the work, but if possible, please could pedestrians use an alternative route through the Sydenham Close amenity area to avoid the area of the work.  If the Longwall footpath is used, please take care when passing the area being worked on. This work will take a few weeks and the Parish Council is unable to provide a completion date at the moment. Thank you for your support and understanding.
