Local Roadworks

There's a little alleyway called Chancery Lane that goes up beside the solicitors' office, past the Library and up to Brook Street. Half of it is open to cars, and the other half is pedestrianised.
Yesterday, a huge pothole opened up right at the entrance to the alley way from Broad Street. It's now got barriers round it until the workmen come to mend it, but that means that road traffic can't get in (or out - several houses have parking spaces up there), so they have taken the bollards away from outside the library, and from the top of the alley way at Brook Street. A bit of a pity, that - the bollard had only been cemented in again after someone ran into it just before Christmas, and now it's lying on the grass to one side.

Meanwhile, the main road at Glasbury is being resurfaced. The roadworks run from right at the edge of the village, past the Harp and past the turning for the bridge. The men with the Stop/Go signs have radios as they're too far away to see each other.
