Wrington MILLENNIUM STONES Erected on Saturday, 18th November, 2000 |
After a long hard year of fund raising and negotiating, at last the Wrington Millennium Marker stones were erected in three places. Following extensive consultation with various utility companies and the Parish Council, it was agreed to place these stones in the vicinity of Udley on West Hay road, Bakers Lane on Half Yard and Havyat Road. On Saturday 18th
November the first stone was placed outside the PJ Hare works
on Havyat Road at approx 9a.m. followed by the others at West
Hay Road and lastly at Bakers Lane. |

First job is to dig the trench .... | .. and carefully swing the stone over ... |
|
|
... and lower it into place | Then, protecting its face with wood .. |
|
|
... raise it to the correct angle. | All done by 9.40. Congratulations to all ! |
