When the neighbouring village of Upper Clumpthorpe raises the bar, Lower Clumpthorpe is duty-bound to respond. But with the village bunting in need of a little TLC, a flagpole that’s conspicuous by its absence, and a certain Chairman who seems unusually keen to keep the past firmly in the past, the Parish Council has some rather pressing matters to discuss.
An ordinary meeting of Lower Clumpthorpe Parish Council takes an unexpected turn when news breaks of a most unfortunate incident in the village. With conflicting accounts, a series of increasingly improbable events, and a certain amount of confusion over precisely what happened, Prudence is determined to establish the facts.
