Welcome this is the re-worked village web site.
Still retaining the same web address & the content has broadly been retained.
We are sending out emails & have been telephoning the advertisers & organisations to verify details.
I am afraid if we get no response from our enquiries we will remove the item.
Isleham Guides are coming back
Photos from village events, e.g. Gala Day
& also pictures of local buildings, scenes, etc.
We are trying to expand the gallery section.
