Superfast Broadband
On Thursday the PCC was informed by the Diocese that it had approved the antenna. The PCC is now in the process of signing the required documents. Airband is still having a few problems with the antenna at the waterworks, but expects to have every thing up and running within two months. The PCC is pleased that by allowing an antenna on the church tower it can be instrumental in providing the community of North Bovey with the option of having superfast broadband which otherwise would not have been a possibility through the BT Open Reach network. Please contact Peter Keesom on whpeterkeesom@gmail.com if you have any queries

The mystery of the missing table
The old (17C?) table used in church for the visitor’s book has mysteriously disappeared and been replaced by a newer model sometime last year. It was replaced with a newer version of similar size and as it is usually covered with a cloth it has gone unnoticed by the majority. Do you know what has happened to the original? Any ideas as to where it might be? Any information or ideas would be welcomed. Please call Sarah 01647 441224 if you can help
