HOW DELIGHTED we have all been by the numerous congratulatory comments we have received on the first issue of Parish Cake. Readers have liked the size, the layout, presentation and content. The idea to send it to every household in Cranbrook and Sissinghurst has also been warmly welcomed. I hope the magazine will make the community more aware of the wide range of activities in which the parish council is involved and the variety of interests and happenings in the wider communities. Examples include the council’s Neighbourhood Development Plan working groups in Cranbrook and Sissinghurst, which are both doing excellent work, and traffic observations in the parish.

Nuts in May, a Chelsea Fringe spinoff, was an enormous success and encouraged many people to visit Cranbrook and view the town from the top of St. Dunstan’s Church. Other popular events include the annual Sissinghurst fête, Cranbrook Art Show, the Apple Fair and the Cranbrook Literature Festival. One must not forget the shows by the Cranbrook Operatic and Dramatic Society (CODS), which are staged in the Queen’s Hall. We are a very lucky to have such a vibrant parish. Cllr.
