Gretton Parish Council Parking Guidelines

Gretton Parish Council is dedicated to maintaining safety and convenience for all residents and visitors by promoting considerate parking practices. We encourage drivers to park close to the kerb, ensure enough space for other vehicles, and use designated spaces. It is important to avoid parking on double yellow lines, blocking access points, or obstructing pavements. UK law prohibits causing obstruction on highways, with penalties including fines and points on driving licenses. Adhering to these guidelines helps keep Gretton safe and accessible for everyone.

Community Orchard

Orchard planting dates:

Saturdays 8th Feb and 15th Feb for planting the hedge and fruit trees. Again, I suggest between 10am and 2pm. We might need to continue planting in March and will arrange a date once we know the situation.

To help spread the word and enable quick and easy communication, if you use Facebook, please consider joining the Gretton Nature Recovery group, this is a private group for everyone in Gretton wishing to be involved.

If you have a chance to tell others who might be interested in being involved, that would be great. No need to let us know if you can help on these orchard dates, just come along with the family and friends, the more the merrier!

If you would like to contact me or have any questions, please email me:   douglashall1@sky.com

It's coming to that time of year when our thoughts are turning to gardening.

Gretton has an allotment site for village residents and it is likely that some plots will become available shortly, ( which we will be able to confirm within the next 2 weeks).

If you are interested in having a plot, or part of one please contact Steven Gray
