📹 CCTV installation is now underway at the Village Hall — a great step forward in helping keep our community space safe and secure for everyone. Thank you to Grant & David from Saltire Security for the installation. 🌿 Meanwhile, our contractor, RS Gardening Services has been out in full force — trimming hedges, clearing leaves, and making sure the village is looking its best as autumn sets in. If you are passing by, do not forget to give the boys a wave and a big thank you

And with that… our raised beds are in! 🌿 Huge thanks to Ally Mac Joinery for doing an excellent job, as always! We chose railway sleepers for the build, a little nod to the railway history that once ran through our village 🚂. Part of the installation was generously funded by the Scottish Heritage Fund — thank you! The remainder came from your CVA memberships, so thank you to all members for helping make a real, visible difference in our village! Now it is over to the Green

Tony has officially started work on our flower beds, and we are excited to see the transformation take shape for the coming weeks/months. The sleepers for the new borders have just been delivered and will be installed very soon – it is all coming together beautifully! If you have got a love for gardening or just want to lend a hand, we would love to have you on the Green Team! 🌱 Get in touch and grow with us! ❤️

We are making exciting progress around the Village Green and the Village Hall area; from tree maintenance to new planters, and even plans for a new Christmas tree.

It is a sad day in our corner of the village — our dear planted Christmas tree has passed on. His time with us was short, but he brought joy, a few giggles (mostly due to his tiny size), and a whole lot of festive charm. Unfortunately, it was a lack of water that led to his early end. We are disappointed, a bit heartbroken, and maybe just a little wiser now. No immediate plans on what comes next — for now, we are letting him rest where he stood so proudly. A wee farewell cere
