Join the BMWs - Tuesdays & Thursdays at 8.00am

Join the Brentham Morning Walkers on their twice weekly walks round Pitshanger Park, every Tuesday and Thursday morning. The BMWs estimate the walk is approximately 3,000 steps long – a third of one’s daily target.  Not only do the BMWs enjoy the exercise, the fresh morning air and the changing scenery, but they also discuss films, theatre and anything else that is topical. For more information contact Rosanna.

What do you Know about the History of your House?

If you know something interesting about the history of your house please let the web editor know. The Brentham website has a page with historical information for every house and building in Brentham, including the name of the architect and the date the plan was approved – but we are hoping to add more. Has someone famous lived in your home? Is your house one of the few that had an oak floor when it was first built?

Roof Insulation

Several householders in Brentham may be taking advantage of the Council-supported home insulation programme (Heatstreets) being run by Powergen. If you are having your roof re-covered, or are installing roof insulation, there are issues to bear in mind to avoid subsequent problems, particularly with issues of ventilation in the roof space. The Brentham Conservation Area Advisory Panel has produced two guidance notes, “Re-covering Roofs” and “Loft Insulation and Roof Ventilation”. Copies can be sent or emailed to you by contacting the Advisory Panel or the Brentham Society.
