The Village monthly magazine, THE LINK is delivered free to every household in Quendon and Rickling and may also be downloaded from this site. Each month's issue is available before the end of the previous one, both the latest and previous issues are available. Click here for the latest issue and here for the previous one. Please note that though the pictures in them are reduced in resolution, the files are still quie large and may take a while to download.
Though our site host provides for membership of the site, we currently have no discussions, polls or surveys and therefore membership confers no benefits.
