A driver has been left devastated after their vintage bus was damaged by vandals. Essex Police have launched a police probe into the incident and have now released an appeal for information, urging any witnesses to come forward. It was reported that between 1 and 8 November last year, damage had been caused to the windscreen and a window of a vintage blue Leyland bus, which had been parked on Pork Lane in Great Holland. Community policing teams have since been working alongside colleagues at Tendring District Council to find those responsible for causing the damage. And the force say the attack has left the bus owner devastated, with the vehicle often being used for various charity events.
CAMPAIGNERS are striving to raise hundreds of thousands of pounds in share capital to save a village’s last remaining pub for from permanent closure. The Manor, in Rectory Road, Great Holland, has been shut since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic and the landlords have no plans to reopen it. Blueprints to turn the 250-year-old establishment into a five-bedroom home had been submitted but then Tendring Council declared it an Asset of Community Value. As a result, The Manor Reborn group, made up of villagers attempting to rescue the popular watering hole, now have six weeks to show they intend on bidding for it.
