Fulking Features in The Argus

Fulking was featured in The Argus last night.

Every Tuesday The Argus runs a feature called “In Your Street”. It’s a look at the history and current set-up of streets and villages in Sussex.

So reporter Ben Leo visited our village last week and met up with some local residents including Jenny Tooley and Bob Rowland.

We reproduce Ben’s feature here with kind permission. Click the thumbnail on the right for the full version.

Get Ready For Winter

Snow and Ice Clearing

Do’s

  • Follow the Parish Winter Management Plan.
  • Spread salt/grit evenly and at appropriate spread rates.
  • Spread salt/grit before frost to be most effective.
  • Clear any excess salt or grit once the snow/ ice has melted.
  • Inform either the grit bin volunteer or Parish Clerk if the grit is running low.
  • Look out for your neighbour.

Don’ts

  • Use water to melt snow and ice, if there is a risk it will refreeze.
  • Move snow to a location where it will create another risk such as another part of the pavement, road or where people are likely to walk.
  • Use excessive salt, grit or other materials so as to create a new or worse risk once the snow/ ice has melted.
