You may have noticed our new Christmas Tree in the Hermitage Road Recreation Ground.
Cold Ash Parish Council and District Councillor Garth Simpson applied for and won a grant from West Berkshire Council to fund a Christmas Tree and associated LED lighting.
We hope you enjoy the Christmas tree and that it brightens up the recreation ground a little this year.
The Parish Council now plans to fund a Christmas tree every year and we may even have our own ‘switch on’ event next year!
