There is also a raffle and prize

Campaign for Village Asset status – The Old Horse Pond (opposite Chapel Cottages)

In the Wardington Parish Community Led Plan, published in 2015, there is mention on page 5 of proposed plans to develop, do improvement works to, and provide a bench at The Old Horse Pond, opposite Chapel Cottages, in order that it may be enjoyed by villagers.

We intend to bring this matter up at the forthcoming AGM of the Parish Council on 24th May 2016, albeit the Parish Council are already aware of the matter and have previously requested the fence be removed.
