Restriction Notice for the attention of all
school parent drivers 

RESTRICTION ON THE USE OF THE PRIVATE CAR PARK BY THE PARISH HALL

We have had to place a restriction on cars and other vehicles from using St Chad’s Church private

car park situated at the top left of the Cemetery Access Driveway entry off High Holborn road.

 

'NO PARKING' restriction in effect every weekday during school term times

from March 2025 until further notice between the hours of:

► 8:20am to 9:00am  and  3:00pm to 3:30pm ◄

 

The restriction is to ensure the safety of and prevent any accidents occurring to our school children

at arrival and departure from the school during the very busy times shown above.

All school parent drivers are thanked for their cooperation.

 

 

(Click anywhere on the areal map above for a larger view)

The top of the areal map shows the location of a gate which connects our neighbour's ASDA car park to the Church grounds. Please use ASDA's car park to drop off or to pickup school children.

The restrictions (shown in white on the red poster to the left of this announcement) apply to the whole area marked out by the red dashed perimeter border around our car park on the areal map.

The Cemetery Access Driveway (off High Holborn) is shown.

The name "Dudley Road" on the A459 changes to "High Holborn" at the point indicated by the black arrow to the lower right of the map.

ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOUR AT ST.CHAD'S CHURCH GROUNDS

As many of you are aware, recently we have had a gang of youths engaging in antisocial behaviour and hanging around the old school building and social club.
They have broken in and caused lots of wilful damage to the old school building and also caused damage to the social club roof.
On Sunday, 17 March 2024, a gang of youths assaulted two people in Sedgley Town Centre.
Therefore, for your safety, we are advising parishioners not to approach them if you see them on our premises, but to report any issues to the police, please.

IN AN EMERGENCY PHONE  999     ▬     TO REPORT ALL OTHER ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOUR ON OUR CHURCH PREMISES PHONE  101

Always ask for a "Crime Number" at the end of your call to the police and pass it on to:

Eileen, our Parish Office Administrator - Tel: 01902 882215, for our office records

Thank you for your vigilance and support.
