URGENT -Broom Lake Contractors Alert

The club have just been informed (on the afternoon of 9th July) by the Southill Estate that contractors will be chipping ‘brash’ on Thursday 10th July. The ‘brash’ results from the cropping of cricket bat willows that occurred in 2024. Members should follow any instruction and/or signage provided by the contractors. Some of the ‘brash’ was located in very close proximity to the track around the lake. If members have any safety concerns about the way the work is being carried out by the contractors then please contact an officer of the club ASAP.
