Free Fibre Internet

County Broadband offered free instllation and free internet to Belchamp Walter Village Hall.

March 2023 - So far the installation has been done but not connected to the Fibre network. The understanding is that the road needs to be closed to allow technicians to access the connection in the street. The village is "live" so there is no question that the fibre signal exists not far from the hall.

In addtion there is a TOBY box outside the Village hall. This was installed when the village was dug-up over two years ago and CBB, when asked about why most of the village is connected using overhead drops after digging up most of the roads, they replied thus:

" Thank you for taking the time to contact us in regards to the full Fibre broadband project in your village of Belchamp Walter.

Please be advised that all of our full Fibre broadband projects are complex in nature and we utilise any existing infrastructure where possible to speed up the delivery of the service whilst decreasing the disruption caused for the installation.

This will likely be the reason as to why part of the village is being fed overhead and some other parts of the village project are being fed underground, we of course will install new infrastructure where applicable to ensure we connect as many signed up residents as possible.

I trust this provides the answer to your question, should you require any further assistance then please don't hesitate to contact us back on 01376 562 002 and we will be happy to help. "

I suppose that is possible that there is no fibre in the TOBY box outside the hall. However, the roads around Belchamp Walter were extensively dug-up, the Cross-roads all along Gestingthorpe Road, Hall Road and the section between Munt Farm and Belchamp Walter water mill (Mill House actually) - including a long section underground past the Church.

So no, the reply from CBB does not answer my questions!
