BRADWORTHY, Buckland Brewer and Putford are among six villages in which have clubbed together to reinstate a rural bus service axed due to council cuts.

The 372 afternoon service from Barnstaple to Bradworthy was suspended during the summer.

But now, the parish councils for Bradworthy, Buckland Brewer, Littleham, Landcross, Park­ham and Putford have raised £600 to pay for the service to run every Friday afternoon over the summer period.

Please see this week's edition of the 'Post' for a round up of the area news and sport.
