Many thanks to Bekki Leaves and her team for orgainising the annual Denmead 10 k club run and well done to all 67 members who took part!

The Old Mill Lane hill has been closed for an extended period due to a badger set causing a section of road along Old Mill Lane to become unsafe. This was found during routine maintenance work. Badgers and their sets are protected by law hence the closure whilst plans can be made to assess and repair the damage and avoid disturbing the set.

I have had to devise an alternative route so as not to disturb the set and reduce the risk to club members on the closed section of road. This link  Denmead 10k Training Route shows the revised route, please take a look at the document to familiarise yourself with the new route.
