Hills plaque to be funded by County

by admin on January 5th, 2015

IN DECEMBER Essex County Council announced they will fund improvements and maintenance work to York Hill Green. This includes the placement of a commemorative plaque on the Green to celebrate its special views over London as well as the 40th anniversary of the Hills Amenity Society.

Other work on the Green will include much needed maintenance of the wooden posts, repositioning and replacement of the yellow grit bin with one in Victorian style, and restyling of road signage to be more in keeping with the conservation area.

Loughton Town Council successfully applied for the funding after over a year’s collaboration with the Hills Amenity Society and the City of London, who own the land. The Plaque will depict the view from the Green, illustrated by local artist Daniel Wallis and installed by Loughton Town Council.

The work is expected to be carried out in the spring with an unveiling ceremony to follow. We will keep you updated, so watch this space! Maybe another excuse for a celebration on the Green?
