- YOUR
ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO... Newspaper
reports have very recently highlighted the thefts of drainage
covers, some of which were in the vicinity of Ashby St Mary
at Alpington, with Brooke being the next closest area. Our County
Councillor, Adrian Gunson was quoted as saying: "...the
thefts leave deep open drains that can be a serious hazard to
road users, risking damage to vehicles and serious injury to
pedestrians, cyclists and motor cyclists." There is more
on this subject in Homewatch News.
