What if … Brill village had car-free days?

Remember those days gone by when children rode their bicycles and played hopscotch in the streets? No, us neither - but what about it? Once or twice a year, the whole of Brill - or just a street (Brae Hill and The Firs would be perfect!) closed to traffic for an afternoon and an evening so children could run up and down and play, and grown-ups could set up deck chairs and BBQs and share food and drinks on into the summer night? Surely we don’t have to wait for another Coronation!

Gov.uk has a page about closing streets (opens in new tab) for parties - although interestingly, parish councils have the final word - so it can’t be too crazy an idea. What do you think?
