Then the following day sees a performance of Wind in the Willows by the Horningsea Mechanicals down by the river.
On a less happy note the current phase 2 consultation for the sewage works just up the road ends on the 18th.
If you are unsure of what the consultation means, then the Save Honey Hill group have put some suggestions with a direct link to fill in the survey online:
Please do complete the survey. Horningsea is going to take a massive hit with this sewage works. It’s massive, it will be smelly and there will be a lot of traffic.

Here’s July’s Herald.
As you will have undoubtedly seen Anglian Water has chosen Honey Hill to build its new sewage works. A sewage works as large as Horningsea right outside our village. The Phase 2 consultation began on the 23rd of June until the 18th August. This is primarily about mitigation – about having your say regarding issues such as positioning, traffic, lighting (at night), noise pollution, odour, design, screening, impact on wildlife and environment and so much more.
Visit the Save Honey Hill website to find out more about their plans with links to Anglian Water’s documentation.
Finally on a far lighter note, here’s another photo of Keith’s owl boxes around Horningsea. This barn owl photo was taken by Geoff Oliver.
