Barn Fire

I would like to thank the local community for their fantastic response to the barn fire on Pickers Hill Farm. We received a number of calls from residents with information and this assisted greatly with the investigation. As it stands, the incident is still under investigation and 3 people are currently on bail.

However, the investigation is not completed and we would still like to hear from anyone who witnessed the event or feels they may have any information that could help. If you do, then please get in contact either with myself on the details listed on the first page, or call 101 and quote reference 1060 of 18/08/15.

Many thanks for your continued support and for helping to tackle anti social and criminal activity in your community.
