The annual maintenance has been performed on the historic gate at the entrance to St Leonard's Hill.

Ian and John (SLHRA Chair and Treasurer) kindly performed the maintenance; preparing (filled and sanded), priming and painting the gate.

Thank you to everyone who stopped and spoke with the Ian and John, it was great encouragement especially on those hot days!

We have pictures and illustrations showing the gate as far back as 1869, see them in the Gallery click here

Thank you Ian and John. Ed.

Legoland is both a neighbour and a resident of St Leonard's Hill, owning storage facilities at the farm at the top of St Leonard's Hill, where they store some of their Legoland park furniture.

Some time ago, Legoland offered to sweep the hill as they had a machine that they use at the park. Unfortunately, this was delayed as the prior appliance needed to be replaced. The new appliance has arrived, you can see from the picture that it is a 21 plate!

A big thank you to the Legoland team for sweeping St Leonard's Hill.

Our contractors, Falcon Surfacing Ltd, carried out the road repairs on the 6th January as voted by you the subscribers through our digital survey.
All this work is only possible because of our residents’ generous contributions which, we hope they will agree, have been put to good use. 

Our contractors, Falcon Surfacing Ltd, carried out the first phase of the 2020/21 road repair programme on December 15th which was aimed at remedying the worst of the potholes on the Hill.
Further work will take place in January 2021 to resurface the area of the Hill adjoining the western junction of Illingworth. The drain cover at the junction of Chestnut Drive which has been depressed by an HGV will also be rebuilt.
All this work is only possible because of our residents’ generous contributions which, we hope they will agree, have been put to good use.

A local resident has kindly provided the following information and message we wanted to forward to SLHRA residents relating to food delivery lists.

Hi,
 
We hope you and your families are all staying safe in these uncertain times. As it is becoming increasingly difficult to secure a supermarket delivery slot we thought it maybe useful if we pulled together a list of some local companies that are providing food delivery services or takeaways.
