Hi all,
Just a quick heads up that Braymeadow Lane will be closed on Tuesday 17th June from 9:30am until 3:30pm. During this time you will need to head to us either through the new housing estate in Hethersett (onto Harness Maker Way)or from the hospital end of Hethersett Lane. If you have any problems, just give us a call.
Thanks

Morning all,
Just a note to let you know that access to us is a little limited at the moment.
Colney Lane is closed from the Norwich Road to just before Harness Maker Way, but access can still be gained from that direction through the new estate (via Hethersett and onto Coachmaker Way) This closure will be for about 14 weeks.
Green Lane (Little Melton) is also currently closed on the bend by the pond. Access can be gained from the other sides of the village. I believe that this will remain closed for 3 days.
Please bear this in mind when planning your journey to us. Sorry all :(

Hi all. Please be aware that the guys cutting the hedgerows on Braymeadow Lane have cut through the BT/EE cables.
We therefore have no phone or broadband at the moment and no means no means of taking card payments.
It should hopefully be resolved within 48hrs (so they tell me)

Please accept our apologies if you are trying to get hold of us by phone today. BT seem to think that it's perfectly acceptable to disconnect the analogue line before the digital one goes live, leaving us without a phone until they complete the update later tonight 😡😤😠
