RESURFACING plans for a busy footpath in Sparsholt have been postponed.

Work on the one-kilometre bridleway, which runs through Ham Green, was due to start on September 20.

It is a joint project between Winchester City Council, Sparsholt Parish Council and the Ham Green Volunteers, and would see 40 tonnes of scalping fixed in place.

Terry Dunn, of the volunteer group, said it is long overdue, and will be “a good job to get done.”

Further details are to be announced.
