At this time of year we start to think about the mud drying up and getting out to walk in the beautiful English Countryside again, but where to find new and interesting walks?
Walking in Hertfordshire https://www.walkinginengland.co.uk/herts has hundreds of walks to download and print, free, it also has books of walks, details of all the walking groups in the county and much more. Whether you want to walk on your own or with a group all the information is there in one place.
John Harris (the custodian of the website) said ‘There is so much walking information on the web but it is difficult to find. Walking in Herefordshire (part of the Walking in England website) has brought it together in one place so whether you are walking from home, or away on holiday, you will be able to find a walk suitable for you’.
With walks from half a mile to twelve miles plus long, and a note of suitability for pushchairs and wheelchairs, everyone can find a walk to enjoy.
So home or away, check out the websites and get walking!

OWL – Online Watch Link – Hertfordshire Neighbourhood Watch
On the home page there is a section called Join Your Local Watch, where people can sign up to the system (for email/fax/phone messages) by entering their postcode and following the instructions.
In addition there is an OWL alert app available on the android play store/apple app store (depending on which type of phone you have) – this can be configured to ‘push’ alerts to the user’s phone from within a specified radius of their postcode.
The Local Government Boundary Commission for England is asking for your views on our electoral review of East Hertfordshire. The review will agree new ward boundaries across the council.
•Do you have suggestions about where your ward boundaries should be?
•Where do people in your area go to access local facilities, such as shops and leisure activities?
•Which areas do you identify as your local community?
East Herts District Council are aware of unauthorised development taking place in the Cherry Green/Westmill area near Buntingford and are taking steps to address this.
The Children’s Playground refurbishment is well on its way and the safety fencing will be removed on Friday.
The 1962 roundabout will remain fenced off until we are able to complete the more complicated works on the footplates and final refurbishment.
The Activity Trail is still awaiting its wooden replacement parts (16 week wait time!) but when we receive those this will be fully refurbished.
All the play equipment will be accessible including the four new pieces for younger children’s play.
The playground looks like new again and we hope visitors will enjoy all the improvements and additions we have made.
