COMPTON is set to receive a new bench, as agreed by Hampshire County Council.
They have agreed to a provision of an additional bench in Compton Street – land owned by the county council – at an estimated cost of £900.
At their recent annual parish council meeting, parish councillors said £1,000 had been set aside from last year’s budget for the bench but needed to further clarify the costs involved.
They also suggested that local residents be given advanced warning of the installation.
