Lasswade District Civic Society Summer Newsletter 2010
Lasswade District Civic Society Summer Newsletter 2010 IIIntroduction:Introduction: Welcome to the Summer Newsletter of the Lasswade and District Civic Society. Thanks to many people we have been busy. At our spring AGM we heard a fascinating account of the history of the area by Neil Stuart. In June we cleaned up rubbish and lorry tyres from the river between Polton and Lasswade and the villages, only to see them and piles of black bags promptly removed by Midlothian Council while we barbecued in the park. People have worked hard on the community garden which enhances the middle of the village. We have responded to planning applications, started a collaboration with other groups along the River North Esk to utilise its flow to generate renewable electricity along its length, worked with Historic Scotland over the future of the Mavisbank grounds, and opened up a campaign to improve the broadband of Lasswade and Polton. A big thank you to Sarah Barron and David Smith who stepped down from the committee this year and a warm welcome to Sheila Murray who joins us from Loanhead and Adam Landsdown from Polton. As always do come and join us. Full details are on the web site http://www.lasswadecivic.com (David Sugden, Chair) Footpaths Access to Mavisbank grounds from Polton We are trying to solve a problem of local access to Mavisbank grounds from the Polton end. The people living in the houses at the entrance believe that the route goes through their gardens and is therefore private. Others have enjoyed walking the circular route through Mavisbank grounds and the river path and are frustrated not to be able to link the two at the Polton end. -
