A small ceremony is to take place tomorrow (17 October) to formally open both the interpre-tation board sited at Wansford Lock and the proposed memorial to former Wansford postmaster Bryan Hills.

Funded by public donations, the memorial to Bryan – a long-serving parish councillor and village hall committee member who funded the installation of the defibrillators in both villages – is a filled planter complete with a small plaque. This will be placed near the picnic bench, the installation of which Bryan part-funded, near Wansford bus shelter.

The ceremony at Wansford Lock will start at 2pm to be followed by free light refreshments in Wansford Village Hall, with donations, if de-sired, to Wansford Village Hall funds.

The interpretation board has been in place on the lock since June and has been seen to be attracting much interest from the many visitors to the village, who use the picnic table and generally enjoy the view of the lock and navigation. It was installed by Jim Stockwell and Keith Pick and was funded with grant aid from the Lissett Community Wind Farm Fund, Driffield Canal Partnership and Driffield Navigation.
