Denton is supporting Harleston. The Parish Council has agreed to make a donation to Harleston Town Council to assist them with the cost of providing free car-parking in the town.
At its meeting on March 9th Denton PC responded to a request from Harleston and agreed to pay them £100. This recognises the use Denton residents make of the town's car parks which are paid for from the Town Council's precept.
At the same meeting DPC agreed to make representations about the current traffic restrictions in the town centre.

It can be seen at DPC Planning Policy.

Further details and the winning entries can be seen on the Group's Page on the Website.
