Lincoln Road Play Area Hedge


I have received one or two comments about the cutting of the hedge along the Lincoln Road which forms part of the boundary with the Play Area.

Views are mixed: some dismayed at the scale of cutting. Others are pleased to see that the Police will be able to see if any Anti-Social Behaviour is taking place as they drive up and down the Lincoln Road. This, as I recollect, has been the advice all along as a means to reduce ASB on all public open spaces.

I took a couple of photos, one inside the play area and one from the Lincoln Road, and spoke with the workmen who were clearing up the packages of crisp bags and take-away cartons (some half full) which are deposited in the open space.

The hedge will grow again - so I am in favour of the cutting to allow the police and PCSO's to
see what is going on!
