New Aerial Photographs

The webteam has recently been provided with aerial photographs of Hodnet taken in approximately 1980 and 2007.
There are several changes in the village which can be identified from these images and we encourage you to try and spot them.
You will find them on our ‘Hodnet from the Air’ page.

Hodnet and District Garden Club Meeting March 2013

The next meeting of Hodnet and District Garden Club is on Tuesday 19th March at 7.30 pm in the Lyon Hall, Hodnet.
Our guest speaker for this month is Martin Ford.  Some of you may know Martin from his participation in the Radio Shropshire’s Garden Phone In programme that he has been involved with since 1985.  He has also been teaching horticulture since 1968.  With all his knowledge and experience as an allotment holder in Shrewsbury, his talk on Modern Techniques in Vegetable Growing should be informative and instructive in order to help us grow healthy food for our busy lives.
New members always welcome. For more information, contact our Secretary Kathryn Sutherland on 01952 550869
