The Brentor Village Website
Welcome to our website about the whole of Brentor Parish - its people, activities and history. We hope you find it useful if you live in Brentor or are just visiting. Brentor is a strong community and this website is looked after by a team of local volunteer editors. The website includes access to the Brentor News, which has been a source of information to the Parish for over 30 years.

Brentor Steam Day and
Miniature Steam Rally
12 May 2012 11.00am - 4.00pm
 This new event is to be held at Brentor Station. A miniature steam railway track will be
laid and rides will be given, as at the Brentor Shows in 2009 and
2010, but with an extended layout. Scale model traction engines
will also be giving rides and there will probably be model railway layouts and
displays by local steam preservation groups.
The Station Buffet will be serving
railway themed food throughout the day, so be sure to come along to enjoy a
steam-themed lunch or guards van tea, or whatever the buffet staff are
planning.
See the May Brentor News for more details |

Annual Parish Meeting 2012
The annual parish meeting will take place on Wednesday 9 May at the Village Hall, starting at 7.30pm.
Representatives from the Parish Council and local groups will be present to report on activities and it is a good opportunity to discuss any current issues outside of the formal proceedings of a parish council meeting. Any ideas coming from the meeting can be considered by the Parish Council at a future meeting.

Improve your French and help with Playing Field funds!
Are you interested in joining a French evening class in Brentor? Kath Warren, the Teacher of Modern Foreign Languages Launceston College, is hoping
to start one as soon as possible. It will be on Tuesday evenings, probably 7.30pm - 8.30pm.
Initially the course will run for six weeks and will be on an informal basis, although
it will be a properly taught session. The cost will be around £4 per session, paid
on the evening, with no obligation to pay if you can't make the session. There will be varying levels of competency, some will be complete
beginners and some will wish for something more demanding, but Kath willl try to cater
for all who take part.
Phillipa and Dom Carnell have kindly offered their kitchen
as a venue and all the money taken will be donated to the playing field maintenance
fund.
If you are interested, contact Kath on 810024 (evenings) for further
details. |
