Recreation Grounds, Playspace, Pavilion, Playing Field and Skate Park
Peasmarsh: is fortunate in having extensive recreation grounds available for sport and leisure. Our new playspace is proving popular with all ages, thanks to hard work from volunteers and some substantial donations, but we have two big problems.
Litter – There is no doubt that the young people are the worst offenders, very often dropping their litter within a couple of feet of the bin.

Hide AdThe lack of volunteers. The Recreation Ground Committee desperately needs new members. Being a committee member is not an onerous task. If we cannot find some more volunteers to help run the grounds the ultimate result would be that we would have to close it all. Then Rother might decide it was a good spot for another housing estate! This is the worst case scenario – but you can’t expect the same people to go on doing the same job for ever.
While we are having a moan – there have been a number of complaints about dog mess lately. Clear up after your dog – and put the bag in the bin! The cinderpath to School Lane is a disgrace!
