This rubbish has been lying alongside a public footpath for several months in some cases several years. Because there is vehicle access it’s easy for the culprits to reverse in out of sight of the A1. On several occasions there has been human excrement and used toilet paper lying in the public walkway. Why can’t the entrance in on the junction of the main highway be blocked with bollards or some other type of immovable obstruction but still allows pedestrians. This is a popular walking route for the village.

  • Council reported this as “in progress” 2 weeks ago, nothing has been done on the ground. I walk there twice a day. The area is now so overgrown it will need to be strimmed in order to see the rubbish because it has been left so long. Another excuse to delay! The in progress post is purely to manipulate poor response times.
