My house backs on to Alleyns school field and over the last couple of weeks they have dug up pretty much all of there playing field with some quite heavy machinery. As far as I am aware this is without warning as I have just moved into the house and no building work on the field was indicated by my surveys. Does anyone know what's going on????

Apparently they are relaying the sports field so that they can in future be able to accommodate the 1st X! for football and cricket. The new building encroaches quite massively on those pitches, you see. That's all. It definitely isnt any new buildings apart from the theatre. The NYT are getting a rehearsal room they can use as part of the building. The NYT's founder used to teach english at Alleyns. he left in 1958 to start the NYT. Michael Croft is his name.

    • There's quite a difference between going for a run around the footpaths and trying to sit quietly for an afternoon in a wide, grassy area and enjoying the peace & nature. The other two grassy areas in the park are used for sports, and both had barriered trackway running through them. The Parkrun had to be cancelled for at least three weeks, iirc. I'm concerned by your continued reference to "the rye" - the event is held in the park, not on the rye (common). There is a big difference, despite the organisers and council artificially amalgamating the whole area when trying to convince everyone that it's only a small area that is closed off. The railings & gates enclosing the park are a big clue...
    • So have you cancelled your contract with InPost / Yodel now? If so, that's probably caused hundreds of parcels to be stuck in limbo, as they've said to me before that they can't redirect them to a different store. I have a parcel that was refused by you twice, the last time on 5/12, and since then there's been no updates, despite me calling them 3 times. They just say it's being investigated, but if they now can't physically deliver to you then that is obviously the issue. So much for shopping for Christmas presents early, looks like I'll never get them now.
    • I thought I noticed the shop being redecorated the other day when I passed. Also the old Romeo Jones had some works going on, I think 
    • Leon came to sort out a lighting issue for us last week.  He quickly diagnosed the problem and gave clear, detailed advice about how to avoid in future.  Would highly recommend him.
