Following the success of our last carnival in 2000, there are plans afoot to hold another one on 3 July 2010. The theme is Brixworth, Past Present and Future.

There will be a Carnival King and Queen, together with Princes and Princesses.

All village organisations will be invited to take part and there are plans to invite some marching bands, majorettes and Morris Men.

The details of the route are still being negotiated with the various bodies but is expected to be similar to the previous one.

Hello,

What does it say about how we value our village, when the first thing you see is a dirty and weed-infested roundabout?

Do you think that visitors and residents alike should be welcomed into the village by this? It send a message that we don’t care. I know the Lions tidied it once and put lots of daffodils in, but since then nothing has been done.

I was told that D. Wilson was in charge of it but HEY are they going to care?  Stop digging your heels in about who owns it and get our groundsman down there. PLEASE!!!
