Welcome to Slyne-with-Hest Corona Virus update
The village is closely following the government advice concerning its response to Corona Virus.
The current advice involving social distancing means that many organisations and buildings are closed but some measures are slowly being lifted.
It is intended to re-open the Memorial Hall from the 1st September, providing there is no further lockdown, and this will be with full sanitising measures and following any guidelines in place at the time.
As there are still restrictions in place It has been decided not to hold any coffee mornings in the near future but this will be reconsidered at the beginning of 2021.
Slyne with Hest Parish Council has taken the decision to remove the unauthorized bike track in the woodland on the recreation field following advice from its insurers.
This is because of concerns for the safety of the track and its users and for other users of the recreation field.
Work on the redevelopment of the field will be commenced once the current drainage scheme for the field has been completed and the Council is satisfied with the outcome.
A consultation on what is desired for the redevelopment of the recreation field will be held in due course and residents are urged to express their views. When it has been agree the consultation date and details will be published.
The Community Development Group would welcome new members.
Our Slyne with Hest is a rural village north of Lancaster. The village borders Morecambe Bay with farmland to the other three sides within the parish. The open green spaces with many mature trees within the village enhance the historic identity of this settlement and instil residents with an appreciation for rural life, the natural environment and a wish to nurture and protect these assets.
