An application to build a single storey extension at Dandy Hall, Willow<br />
Lane, was supported by the <strong>Parish</strong> Council as was the application<br />
to build a two storey extension to the rear of Lime Tree Farm,<br />
Parkers Road. The application to demolish two dwellings at 1-2<br />
Broadway House, Broad Road and erect 4 dwellings was supported<br />
by the Council provided that concerns over vehicular access onto<br />
Blacksmith Road and Broad Road are satisfactorily addressed.<br />
It has been brought to the Council’s attention that some hedgerows in the<br />

trim back hedges on a regular basis.<br />

In Memoriam<br />
John Miles 14th June 1958 - 8th August 2012<br />
John was buried at St Andrews Church <strong>Cotton</strong> on August the 23rd<br />
The funeral service was held at <strong>Cotton</strong> Methodist Chapel<br />
We were all shocked and saddened by the sudden and unexpected demise of<br />
John Miles who was our friend, very well known and a respected member of the<br />
community.<br />
A <strong>Cotton</strong> man born and bred, who had a genuine love of the land and machinery,<br />
especially tractors of which he had rebuilt many.<br />
Kind and humorous, always there to give a helping hand, coping with our tears as he<br />
helped with the burial of our dogs, a friend indeed.<br />
John was well loved as the enormous attendance at his funeral proved.<br />
John will be sorely missed, he has gone - but will never be forgotten.<br />
