The parish council has agreed to purchase 5,000 daffodil bulbs for planting on the far bank and 3,000 crocus bulbs for the nearside (South Road).

“It will add a bit of colour,” said Coun Robert Donkin.

The bulbs will cost around £500 and councillors were told there was money in the budget. Coun Angus Murray added that Fergusons had agreed to contribute £100 towards the bulb planting.
