Please see correspondence below from the Stop Subsidised Windfarms Around Tamworth (SSWAT) Action Group:
As you are aware we have been closely monitoring the Planning Authorities of North Warwickshire Borough Council (NWBC) and Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council (HBBC), in order to be alerted to any planning application for development of a Wind Farm around Austrey House Farm, Orton Lane.
Our vigilance has found that a Planning Application to erect a Meteorological Mast has just been lodged with NWBC. (http://planning.northwarks.gov.uk/portal/servlets/ApplicationSearchServlet?PKID=100951).
Just to remind people that Austrey and Warton Scout Group meets on Monday evenings at Austrey CE Primary School.
We have 15 Beavers regularly attending - with 3 more joining us in the next few weeks. They meet at 5:45 till 7pm.
The Cub Pack is also starting to grow - we currently have 5 regulars, with some of the Beavers moving up to Cubs in a couple of months. They meet after the Beavers, from 7 till 8:15.
We are starting to plan fundays, camps, hikes and trips out for all the sections - in addition to the weekly activities.

During a recent Night Hike, Cubs and Beavers from the recently formed Austrey and Warton Scout Group failed to find any Kangaroo's roaming the fields around the village, despite their proximity to the zoo!
15 young people took part in the expedition around Austrey, No Man's Heath and Newton Regis during the hours of darkness on the evening of Saturday 21st Jan 2012 in search of exotic animals and pixies!! This was the first activity of the newly opened Austrey and Warton Scout Group.
