Llanmaes - Paths for People
CommentLLANMAES – PATHS FOR PEOPLE
The Community Council are interested in setting up a “Rights of Way” Group within the village to protect and promote local footpaths. The statutory duty to protect these paths rests with the highway authority, but local councils can play an important role in ensuring the paths are fit for use.
The aim of the group will be to carry out regular inspections (at least twice a year) of the paths in and around the village. In consultation with the VOGC, possibly carry out basic maintenance work. Check stiles and gates. Ensure rights of way are signposted. Perhaps organise regular walks for local residents.
For further information please contact Cllr Keith Lewis,
24 Tyle House Close, Llanmaes. Tel: 01446 796106

Burton - "a live act at the Llanmaes Village Hall performed by Rhodri Miles"
CommentA reminder that tickets are available for the acclaimed stage play Burton at Llanmaes Village Hall, October 23rd at 7pm for 7:30pm start. This is not a Cinema documentary. Rhodri Miles (Richard II-Hollow Crown, Torchwood and Game of Thrones) vividly presents the life of the great Welsh actor from humble beginnings to Hollywood mega-star. Beautiful women, alcohol, wealth, stage and screen are the threads woven into this sad, happy, exuberant, often hilarious one-man show.
The show received critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2009 and also Hollywood Fringe Festival 2010, where the play won 'Best International Show'.
To buy your tickets please click here to contact the Llanmaes Social Committee, or call Jackie on 07976698325.

Llanmaes Village Fete flyer correction!
Please be aware, the detail on the Llanmaes Village Fete Flyer is incorrect and should have read "Back by popular demand, Blue Ridge Canine Academy" and not "The Dog's Trust". Apologies to both Dog's Trust and Blue Ridge Canine Academy.
