Dog owners are reminded of their social and legal responsibilities to clean up dog faeces, and to dispose of the bags in their home wheelie bins or the four public bins in the village. In addition to being unsightly, smelly and unpleasant, dog faeces carry diseases that affect livestock & humans.

The Parish Council have written to SDC – Dog Warden Services – to ask for regular visits – where instant fines will be implemented.
