Payhembury Parish Council

With the demise of the old CBO Bus, we are now appealing for funds for a new minibus which will be used ‘for the many, not the few’, serving the whole of the Blackdown area. We already have kind donations from the York Inn and Smeatharpe WI, in addition to having a number of small charity event proceeds already promised. We are now seeking contributions from communities within the Blackdowns to support this venture and are looking for local businesses, personal donations and any other charity events able to assist. Please help us to achieve our target of over £20,000 […]

It has been brought to the attention of the Parish Council that there have been a series of thefts from car parks in the Forest Glade/ Blackborough area. Two suspicious looking men have been seen sitting in a car in the car parks prior to the thefts, in each case a dog walker has concealed a handbag in their car prior to walking their dog and their handbag has been stolen when they have returned. Please be careful where you leave your valuables when parking your car.
