IMPORTANT NEWS- WASTE DISPOSAL FACILITY IN PENCOMBE AND LITTLE COWARNE

FROM 16TH – 30TH MARCH 2021

Now that Spring seems to have pretty much arrived, your Parish Council has arranged for two skips to be available for the use of residents to dispose of household waste and garden rubbish. With the current COVID restrictions it is not as easy to use the Council facilities at Bromyard and Leominster, especially for residents taking extra precautions during the pandemic. So at its last meeting the Parish Council agreed to fund two skips for the use of Parish residents.

The Little Cowarne skip is sited in the car park of the Three Horseshoes (by kind permission of Richard Abel).

The Pencombe skip is sited at the bottom end of Durston Lane (by kind permission of Philip Hope).

These skips will be at these sites for two weeks until Tuesday 30th March.
