Large Lorries using the Village as a Rat Run
​​
The Parish Council are fully aware that the Lorries issues with especially Holbrooks is causing lots of issues and we have contacted both Highway's and the police on this and have made representations to them to stop but with no help from any agency. we have contacted the press and they did print an article on this. Our councillor Jenna Goodall Browne has found the website below from MP Ben Goldsborough on Rural traffic safety and we urge you all that have been blighted by this to enter your thoughts on his page and even email him direct on his email address below and if you click on the email address it will take you straight to the email box.

​​​​​​​​​Continued vandalism at Hapton Community Project
The person in this video has committed regular acts of vandalism at the community project especially to the toilet and this is unacceptable and may result in The Parish council keeping the toilet closed until there is an event on. If you recognise the individual please email the clerk or the Police with the name asap.
Due to the continued misuse of the area by people including one dog walker who refuses to have their dogs on a lead we are looking to install new more modern cameras to capture clear images of offenders and we will ensure these are sent to the police and South Norfolk District Council to enforce fines every time and offence happens. ​​​​
Gov.uk email addresses​
The Parish Council have now moved to a Gov.uk email system at the request of the external auditor and the new email address to contact the council is as follows clerk@tharstonandhapton-pc.gov.uk
The old Gmail box will be made defunct at the end of October so we ask that you contact the council on the email address above and all the details are in the newsletter that will come out tomorrow for our brilliant volunteers to deliver asap.
