Bench Replaced at Manor Car Park
We are pleased to announce that the bench outside the Manor Suite, in Manor Car Park has now been replaced!
We would like to give a big thanks for the team work between Holsworthy Town Council (HTC) and Simon & Rachel at Torridge District Council (TDC) for the success of this project.
The bench outside the Manor Suite was unfortunately damaged. Thankfully, TDC removed the bench due to it no longer being fit for use. They have since replaced it with a new and durable, composite bench.
