Beaconsfield Town Hall Green
The Beaconsfield Drinking Fountain Group have been raising funds for a public drinking
fountain and bottle filler, with the generous support of Beaconsfield LAF, Beaconsfield
Decides, Waitrose, Beaconsfield WI and the Heathrow Community Fund. As our
preferred site is on common land, we are required to issue the following notice:
Notice is given that the Beaconsfield Drinking Fountain Group has applied to the
Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs for consent under section
38 of the Commons Act 2006 to carry out restricted works on the Town Hall Green,

the Secretary of State. The proposal is to install a drinking fountain with bottle refill
station on an area of 5 square metres. The drinking fountain will be located on the
north-west corner of the Green, by Waitrose towards the main road.

VE Day
Commemorations
When VE Day dawns on 8th May 2020
it will be 75 years since the guns fell
silent at the end of the war in Europe
and Beaconsfield Town Council would
like to mark the occasion.
Building on the success of last year’s WW1
commemorations, various groups in our
community have got together again to put
on a few events for you. We would like to
thank all those volunteers who are helping
again to make a truly memorable number
of days.
By popular demand the Town Council is
hosting a WW2 memorabilia exhibition at the
Town Hall which promises to be even larger
than last time with an extension of 5 days
and open to the public from 5th – 9th May.
To include your WW2 items and
stories as exhibits please call the
Town Council on 675173 or email
project@beaconsfieldtowncouncil.gov.uk
