My Kind of Gridlock
Countryside gridlock
When I was a child, I remember seeing a postcard that one of my relatives had received from a friend who was visiting Ireland. From what I recall, the postcard was an image of a flock of sheep walking down a country lane and impeding the progress of a solitary figure on a bicycle.
Bolton Road Sign Planters
Village of Bolton Road Sign Planters installed
Following the installation of the Road Sign Planters in Powburn at the end of June 2020, two well-crafted planters have now been installed in Bolton.
Chris Armit from Newcastleton (in the Scottish borders, near Kielder), who made the six planters for the road signs in Powburn, also made two for Bolton. And yesterday (Saturday 18 July 2020), he delivered and installed them.

Road Sign Restoration
A697 road sign restoration
I’ve known about this road sign on the A697 in Crawley Dene for a few years. It’s been at the side of the road, partially knocked down the embankment and in a bit of a sorry state.
We took advantage of having the tractor and the road being shut yesterday, managed to get it out and it’s now in storage.
We will have a look at getting it restored then put back.
Robbie Burn (Chair, Hedgeley Parish Council)
