Open spaces and environment

 This page is dedicated to our involvement in maintaining and preserving the local environment. This includes open spaces (such as Langhams Rec, the Bourne Green and our many parcels of common land), tree preservation orders and the stream. 

Langhams Rec playground:

The playground is a great success and much used by all. Waverley Council have now instituted more frequent grass cutting at Langhams and the reports of youths gathering in the evenings are being dealt with by our local community police officer.

In late 2006 and early 2007 we liaised with Waverley Borough Council to clear the undergrowth at the Aveley Lane entrance of Langhams Rec. The aim is to keep this area more open and improve its safety and appearance.

 

 

 The Bourne Stream

Middle Bourne Lane:

The plot of land known as the Community Garden is owned by Farnham Town Council. It has undergone a complete transformation in the past year. The work has been undertaken, with support from the local council, by the Bourne Conservation Group and local residents. Please go the the Group's website - http://www.bourneconservation.org.uk/mbl.htm - to read and see all about this small plot of land.

 

The BCG spearheaded by Noel Moss is a wonderful asset to the Bourne and is instrumental in helping to keep these pockets of land in a manageable state so that we the local residents can access and enjoy them.
