The link to Coombe Bissett School does not appear to be in operation.

Toby,

John Glenn's link under Government still seems not to be working.

Hello,

I found your website from the villages online site. I was just wondering if you would be interested in adding a link to www.walk4life.info ? It would look great with your pages about maps and walks.

The Walk4Life website is totally free and has thousands of walk ideas all over the country. If you wanted to add some more in your area it is easy to do. You can add a link from each walk you map through to your site with a supporter login (also free) which I can set up for you.

The website uses OS maps which can easily be printed out at home so is proving really popular. People can also keep a track of the walks they have done and set themselves a target!

A link to www.walk4life.info from your site would be much appreciated, or we also have a widget tool which can be customised and then slotted in to your website if you are interested (www.walk4life.info/whats-widget)

If you have any queries or feedback, just let me know!

Best wishes,

Abi,
Thanks for this - we will have a think about it and get back to you. There seem to be very few walks recorded in our area on your site.

Google maps now correctly labels Harvest Lane and Faulston Lane, maybe because I sent a correction to their mapping supplier and the OS. But some satnavs have not caught up; delivery people still sometimes have trouble finding 18-22 The Croft, so I always put Harvest Lane as part of our address

Hello. I am trying to find information about my distant relatives who came from Bishopstone. My great grandfather Thomas Lanham was born in Yass, NSW, AUstralia in 1871 but his father, William (born 1807) came from Bishopstone (his wife was Ann Case) as did his father George Lanham (married Mary Hibbard). As all of the Lanhams in Yass were the blacksmiths, I think that might have been their work in Bishopstone. Any details please

Dear Webmaster,

My name is Debbie Hursey and I work for Counselling DIrectory. I thought the website that we have been developing might be of interest to you and Bishopstone residents: www.counselling-directory.org.uk

Counselling DIrectory provides the UK with a huge counselling support network, enabling those in distress to find a counsellor close to them and appropriate for their needs. This is a free, confidential service that will hopefully encourage those in distress to seek help. The website also contains a number of sections on emotional disorders (types of distress section) and provides some useful statistics. Every counsellor on the site who has submitted their profile has either sent a copy of their qualifications and insurance cover to us, or is registered with a professional body online with recognised codes of ethics and practice, this way we can be assured of their professionalism.

I was wondering if you would be able to provide a link to our website, possibly from your 'Health Services' section here: http://www.bishopstone-salisbury.co.uk/health-services.html. I think our site could be a useful resource for those looking for support or general advice about counselling.

Here is the page that links directly through to counsellors listed in and near Salisbury: http://www.counselling-directory.org.uk/region_125.html.

Thank you very much for your time, I hope to hear from you soon.

Kindest regards

Debbie Hursey (Mrs)
