So the weather has changed back now to a seasonal norm, both the landscape and the livestock I’m sure feel the benefit, as well as us mortals. Sadly some public spaces have suffered more than others and Reeds Meadow may take time to recover. There are some good visuals which take us into the autumn season, the beautifully refurbished bench on Ramsdean Green – with thanks to the Petersfield Men’s Shed, and a beautiful Lambert family bench in Langrish churchyard.

Overgrown road/speed signs in Langrish have been expertly trimmed back by Gerry Clarke so now Langrish can be seen…thank you Gerry; as we have said before, volunteers help keep the villages in order

This month saw the sad closure of St Johns church in Langrish and the final service, which was led by the Bishop of Portsmouth. Its 155 years of service were commemorated in style, more of this later in this issue.

We hope you enjoy this current issue and hope to receive further interesting articles for the Squeaker in the future.

This issue will be printed and distributed to homes in Ramsdean and Langrish. Surplus copies will be left in Langrish House.

We are grateful to Chris Hayward for formatting the September Squeaker design.
