== Latest Update 28 August ==
Well, some spam accounts got through, so now I've turned on account creation approval. If you are a genuine Knebworthian, I'll approve immediately, of course! The Parish Council have just completed on the purchase of the allotments. It now owns them, the Station Pub, the coachhouse (next to to the pub), the Village Hall and three recreation grounds (although the grounds are in part on leases from higher-tier councils). The Village Hall is now back in use, for groups which are able to maintain suitable social distancing. == 13 August == Some spam accounts have created fake pages. I think I've removed them all, but if I haven't, please tell me. Steve. == 9th July == The Parish Council has decided to make the play equipment available again in those recreation grounds where it was unavailable. The Parish Council voted to purchase the allotments. The Parish Council was consulted on various changes in the retail centres in Knebworth with a view to making them more pedestrian and cyclist friendly. == 29th June ==Village Halls can open on 4th July! There are a number of restrictions, including enforcing social distancing and keeping a record of all visitors.See [https://www.cdaherts.org.uk/covid-19-village-halls-acre-re-opening-information-guidance/?doing_wp_cron=1593429800.2877700328826904296875 CDA Herts website] for details. == 26th June == The Station Pub will open on Sat 4th, but with some restrictions to ensure compliance with the current recommended levels of social distancing.[https://www.stationpubknebworth.com/post/our-re-opening-plan Station Pub announcement]. == 19th June == Most of the barriers in London Road are going, and we probably won't get the traffic restrictions in Station Road. See [httphttps://www.knebworthparishchurchknebworthparishcouncil.cogov.uk/downloadsnews/2020/leaflets06/revised-traffic-plan-london-road the Parish%20News%202020%20MayCouncil website] for more detail.pdf The Paris NewsLytton Arms doesn't have an announcement on [https://www.thelyttonarms.co.uk/ its website] , but it is likely that it will not let the opportunity to open go to waste. === 16th June === The cat Slinky has still not been publishedfound. Look out for the notices posted around the village. The Lytton Arms is running very successful off-sales on Sunday mornings, with stalls from David Nye and Steve Nye and Derek Hughes selling locally-produced food and drink. Many local residents have taken avantage of Knebworth Green to enjoy a pint in the fantastic weather we've been having lately. There is a groundswell of interest in the village for buying the allotments between St Martin's Road and Watton Road. Darren Gilbert, of Mather Marshall, is acting for the vendor. The asking price is £40,000, which is a tiny fraction of what the Parish Council spent on the Station Pub. Most shops have now opened, and trade is improving, but digitally the loss of parking in the High Street puts the shops at a huge disadvantage to the supermarkets in nearby towns with their large, free car parks. Someone has posted a range of postcards of Old Knebworth in the village Facebook group. There are many first-class photos of local scenes posted in the group on an almost daily basis. Knebworth JMI has opened, albeit cautiously. The Parish News is going to start publishing again, in hard-copy, in July. === 8th June === The barriers in London Road are widely considered to be a disaster. You can communicate your views via the link below.

Be there or be thirsty! === 18th May 2020 - Knebworth and Marymead Surgery finally relocate to new site in St Martin's Road === For more information, go to [https://www.knebworthandmarymeaddrs.co.uk/ the practice's own website]. === New page ===I created a new page: [[News from the Comet]]. === Knebworth.org rises from the ashes! === I have managed to purchase the domain name knebworth.org at auction. I have, for the moment, mirrored it to this site. At some point, I might make it the primary domain, although, technically, a '.org' top level domain should be used onlyby organizations in the USA.
