New street lights not such a bright idea says resident

February 2021
New streets lights have been installed in the village but they are not to everyone’s liking. The low energy LED lights are meant to be more environmentally friendly than the old halogen variety. However one resident says they are much brighter than the old ones and are staying on longer.  

‘I do hope they eventually go out, as they have stayed on all night since they changed them,’ said Carly Smith at the Boar’s Head. ‘Not good for light pollution and the wildlife.

‘I have to say prefer the old ones.’
