In the centre of Catchback Lane a footpath runs off to the west to join the Marriott's Way (it is the one flooded in wet weather). Where the two paths join there was a stile in a fence approached by a flight of wooden steps. This has somehow been destroyed, with timbers standing up in the air, like debris from an explosion (as at 9 May 05.00). The county council has been informed.
 
Please take very great care if you wish to attempt to cross where the stile was, particularly if you are climbing the stair up from the footpath.
 

The funeral of Keith Manton will be at Reepham St Mary on Tuesday 5 April at 1.30 pm followed by burial in Whitwell Road Cemetery.
 
 For more detailed timings please contact the rector nearer the date.
 
A number of official cars will attend; therefore drivers are asked to take extra care in Church Hill/Market Place from 12.00, and at the cemetery gates in Whitwell Road around 2.15 - 3 pm.
 

Station Road, Reepham, is now open again (Monday 22 February 8 am).

During the last few weeks, large portions of two red chestnut trees at the far end of Norwich Road (disused) cemetery have fallen in high winds. A third tree is still standing, but is dangerous. These are the trees that line the end boundary behind the seat. They will be removed when possible, but while the stormy weather continues please take great care in this area. The other trees in this cemetery have all been examined and certified safe.
 

The funeral of David Cooper will take place at Reepham St Mary on Tuesday 1 December at 12 noon.
 
Please be aware of possible congestion in Market Place/Church Hill around that time.
 
There will be a cremation on 2 December, so there will be no traffic from the town cemetery on 1 December.
