Wysall has entered this year's Best Kept Village competition and we are delighted to say has successfully negotiated the first round of the judging and is through to the second and final round. The four villages in the final of our section are Carlton on Trent , Normanton on Soar, Plumtree and Wysall.

As Judges may visit the village any time after 8th July to take that important second look, we hope that all residents will please do their best to keep frontages and other areas tidy and clear from litter. Thank you and good luck!

Footpath obsTructions

Nottingham County Council is asking local residents to inform them at 0115 977 4802 if they are aware of any public footpaths on arable land in the parish that are being obstructed by crops.
Senior Rights of Way Officer for the joint partnership, Jane Baines, is anxious to ensure that obstructions do not take place and says they will write to any farmers who do not heed requests to rectify the position where blockages are allowed to occur.
The Nottingham County Council says that where obstructions do occur farmers will be asked to remove them or the County Council will carry out the work and charge the farmer for it.

VE DAY 75TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS

Plans are being formulated nationally for events in May 2020 to mark the 75th Anniversary of the ending of WW2. The Parish Council is looking for ways to join in the celebrations that will be taking place and welcomes any suggestions from residents for activities and events that might be held in the village in order we can be part of the nation’s tribute to all those who gave their lives and those who kept the country running during the most challenging times between 1939 and 1945.

On behalf of the Wysall & Thorpe in The Glebe Parish Council, Welcome!

As one of the 41 Thankful Villages that did not suffer any fatilities during the Great War of 1914 to 1918, Wysall believes in encouraging a strong and vibrant village community that all ages can enjoy and benefit from. We are lucky to have our historic Holy Trinity Church which is well supported; our busy Village Hall which hosts some seriously good regular and special events and of course our local pub, The Plough Inn, which provides a pleasant and popular meeting point for catching up on village life.

Throughout the year Wysall really 'goes to town' not only with special events such as the Strawberry Fair and Christmas Market but also in decorating the Church along with many houses and village areas for Easter, Halloween, Christmas and any other special events that take place. This all creates a feeling of a real village community and gives so much pleasure to villagers and visitors alike.

Our Website and Facebook page aim to keep you up-to-date with current activities, meetings and social events as well as the financial aspects and informative details of village life. If we can help with anything further please let us know.
