Welcome to Vale Parish

Vale Senior Constable Richard Leale has responded cautiously to the announcement that the States has spent £6.5m buying Kenilworth Vinery off Lowlands Road to be used to build up to 135 affordable new homes.

Up to 313 new homes could be built at the former sites of Belgrave and Fontaine Vineries now that a draft development framework has been approved for the area. The decision has caused dismay because it runs counter to multiple representations against it, including from the parochial authorities.

Parishioners have been asked by the States to give their views on parish kerbside collections and any visits they may have made to waste sites, such as the bring banks, the Household Waste & Recycling Centre, and the Chouet Green Waste Site.

Vacancies have arisen for one of the best outdoor jobs available in Guernsey – helping to maintain L'Ancresse Common, the largest area of open land in the island and used by thousands every year.
