Cricket Club Funday. It's back on July 14th. Aston Villa old stars have accepted our invitation to play a 30 over fun cricket match against our local team. Plenty of side stalls and a bar too. Be there and have fun.
Thanks Mike and Gill would like to thank all of you (there are too many to mention) who are being so kind and helpful to us during Mike's illness.

The Weather
Lapworth in the early 1900s. John Gaunt, who lived in Lapworth for many tears, recalled his memories of the village for the parish magazine during the millenium. Follow the link to read an extract.
The Mobile Library has several stops in Lapworth, where regularly. Residents are encouraged to make use of the service as it is currently under review and if use falls below a minimum the service could be withdrawn. Follow the link to get details about when it visits.
Parish Plan You can read about progress towards a village parish plan on the parish plan pages.
The Shakespeare Express, a steam railway excursion, operates during the summer months between Birmingham Snow Hill and Stratford Upon Avon, starting from Birmingham. Usually it goes to Stratford via the Earlswood (North Warwickshire) line and returns via the old Great Western line going through Lapworth. Here is a picture of it going through Lapworth hauled by the Rood Ashton Hall one fine September day. You can click on the picture to see it in more detail.
Bus Timetables When is the next bus? Where does it go? Now you can find out on the Web. Warwick District Council have a web page of all bus services in the area, and you can search it for Lapworth bus services. The 520 to Stratford (Tuesdays & Fridays) gives you a couple of hours in the town. Enough to do a bit of shopping and go for a coffee.
