Front Cover
The front cover this month shows a rainbow as you look
along one of the rides in Brampton Wood. It was taken
and send to us by Richard Jeffrey. As ever, we are very
grateful to one of our readers for a great cover photo!
We are always looking for photos, images, drawings and
paintings to use on the front cover so please keep send-
ing them in. Please note that photos should ideally be in
portrait format and should be a
minimum
of 2400 x
1700 pixels. More is better!

March 2018
Welcome to the March edition of the Roundabout. We like to think the magazine is informative and interesting with
the right mix of articles and information. However, the only way we can really know that is if we get your feedback.
If you do have ideas you’d like to see in the magazine, things you’d like to see done differently or want to become a
contributor, then please contact us the editor@buckdenroundabout.info.
The Village Hall and playing fields are play a huge part in village life, so I am hoping that many of you were able to
make the public meeting in February and put forward your ideas about how we can improve both the space and the
facilities it offers.
Finally I’d like to make a plea on behalf of the Parish Council. It is election time in early May, and they’d love to see
some new faces on the Parish Council and to have an election for the first time in living memory!
Please remember to visit the Roundabout website. There are often articles there that we could not fit into the print
edition, as well as information that arrives during the month:
