1989 Beating the Bounds
From Lacey Green History
1989. Excerpt from the Lacey Green Parish Council report by Randall Evans.
This parish is covered by a network of footpaths and these were well utilised in "Beating the Bounds" on 13th May. Probably the first time this has been done in the 55 years life of this civil parish.
Councillors were delighted to be joined by over 90 people in tracing the perimeter of our 2,592 acre parish. The party included one Hambe visitor, after very little sleep, a good crowd of children and five quarrelsome bitches who joined 5 councillors (out of 7, one is unwell and one drove the 'chuck wagon').
A lovely spring day with the Chiltern countryside looking its best, made even more enjoyable the "discovery" of "new" vistas and paths in the parish.
The Parish Council would like to thank local landowners and Speen Baptist Churh for their kind co-operation in allowing the walkers to cross private land. Many thanks too to all those who took part - it's a must for next year.
