 Edgar Powell

I am very sad to have to report that Edgar Powell died unexpectedly last Friday, in hospital. He was 83. Edgar was our local correspondent for parts of Worcestershire and Herefordshire for 23 years (1993-2016), vice-president (2007-2016), trustee (from 1995) and vice-chairman 2002-Dec 2003.  He also served as our appointee on the National Trust council in 2000.

 Working Party in the Golden Valley

The Working Party have been busy again in the Golden Valley, near Peterchurch.

From the impenetrable hedge to two good stiles over looking the Golden Valley.

Many thanks to the Working Party members.
