On By limpsfieldpcIn News

THE OXTED HEALTH CENTRE is a very large health centre, located in Limpsfield Parish (Gresham Road) that services Limpsfield, Oxted and the surrounding areas.  Having existed on the site at 10 Gresham Road for generations, many people in Oxted and Limpsfield have used this health centre their whole life.

All health centres have been through a lot of change over the last few years and Oxted Health Centre is currently undergoing its own changes to develop and grow with the demands of our ever-growing community.

There will be some more updates from them soon, but in the meantime, courtesy of the Oxted Health Centre team, here are some things you should know, that may help you navigate your own healthcare journey with them…

This weekend’s Jubilee Street Party – Limpsfield Village

On By thewordbirdIn Limpsfield Parish Council, Local information, News, What's On

We are very much looking forward to Sunday’s Platinum Jubilee Street Party in Limpsfield Village, which has been organised by the Street Party Committee, headed up by Richard Spiller in conjunction with Limpsfield Parish Council.

The event runs from 12pm to 4pm and must be cleared by 5pm when the road will re-open to traffic.

Please feel free to come along with your own tables and chairs, although there will be 60 tables and chairs provided by the committee.

The event is BYO and there will not be any food or drink stands on site. However, Coffee at Kiwi House will be open and selling coffees, teas, cakes and picnic essentials. You can also pre-order through them in advance.

The Bull Inn will also be open and is hosting a BBQ (although we believe it is already fully booked). The Bull’s toilets are available for use during the street party.

Memorial Stores will be open until 12pm for any last minute supplies required.

Please note: Limpsfield High Street will be CLOSED TO ALL TRAFFIC except emergency services from 10am to 5pm between the A25 and Detillens Lane roundabout. For Bus information, please see https://www.southdown.net or their Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/Southdownbuses/.

Thanks and have a great day!

Work has started on the Limpsfield Way – with new Rest & Play area

On By thewordbirdIn Limpsfield Parish Council, Local information, News

Excited to let you know that work has now started on the Limpsfield Way, starting with the new “Rest and Play” area located in the the lovely green clearing south of the New Road car park.

The contractor (Conservation & Access) has created and installed some fabulous natural wood play equipment for children, along with three benches and a picnic table for rest and refreshment.

We will soon be installing an easy access path from the car park, which will be suitable for wheelchairs and buggies. We are hoping that the Limpsfield Way – a 4.5 mile circular walk from Limpsfield to Limpsfield Chart – will be completed by July.

The route will be waymaked and have a number of information boards with local historical facts.

We are also planning a ‘there and back’ cycle route from Limpsfield Village to Limpsfield Chart.

We will also be setting up web pages dedicated to the walk and cycle route with maps and more information. Please contact Sophie at Limpsfield Parish Council, on clerk@limspfield.org if you have any comments or would like more information.In the meantime, enjoy the new natural play area!

The Limpsfield Way and Cycle Route is funded by Surrey County Council’s #YourFundSurrey scheme.
