I have been the Village Snow Warden for Whiteshill and Ruscombe for the last 4 years. My duties include liaising with Gloucestershire Highways and helping to coordinate volunteers.

We aim to organise work parties to help clear important areas including access to The School, Village Shop and vulnerable residents.

Ruscombe Jubilee Phone Box Gallery and Circular Walk

To celebrate the Queens Jubilee, Whiteshill and Ruscombe Parish Council renovated the Ruscombe phone box.

Councillor Chris Gardner organised the renovation work, which included re painting and lighting, and it is now a gallery. For information on sharing your art or any other request please contact Chris on phsc@tiscali.co.uk

June 5th 2012 saw the opening of the Jubilee Walk which goes through both Whiteshill and Ruscombe with 40 way markers that were designed by children of Whiteshill School. Please see the following link for the opening: http://stroudcommunity.tv/whiteshill-and-ruscombe-diamond-jubilee-walk-2012/

Whiteshill & Ruscombe Playing Field Improvements

The Whiteshill & Ruscombe playing field has undergone some improvements over the winter months and it now has a new fence and platform.

The project was funded by SITA Trust and Whiteshill and Ruscombe Parish Council. The design was created by consultation with The Playing field Committee and Whiteshill School.
