The Parish Council monitors the traffic passing through Repps with Bastwick using a Samsign device, which shows the speed of vehicles  as they approach the device. We hope that road users will slow down through the village with the High Road having a 40mph limit.

The majority of road users do keep to the speed limit, sadly there are a few who continue to speed through the village which is dangerous and wreckless.

We aim to publish the data each month. May’s data is available here

Sadly there was no interest in re-vamping the bowls club. Thank you to Joan Shaw for her initiative on this, we are grateful for the effort she made in attempting to revitalise the bowls club. The council are now giving some thought as to what should be done with this area and will keep you updated as decisions are made.

The village hall now has it’s own website and is full of information about the hall and upcoming local events. To visit the website please click here.

The village hall committee produce the local newsletter ‘Chatterbox’ which is distributed to every property in Repps with Bastwick and is available on the village hall website.

We would like to thank Hazel Rudrum as taking up post as Chairperson to the Parish Council and thank Councillor Fred Sharman for his hard work over the years when he was Chair
