Westborough residents get a new noticeboard

by fionawhite on 14 May, 2013

People living near the Northway access to Stoughton Rec have been upset for a long time about the small triangle of land which belongs to Guildford Borough Council which was getting into a mess with litter and rubbish, not to mention dog pooh, in among the weeds.  As a result of pressure from local residents Rainee Wornham and Brian Holt with the support of Park Barn & Westborough Community Association, the council have started to tidy the area up.

As part of that tidy-up, I was approached to put some of my county councillor allocation to buying a noticeboard so that local people can be kept up to date with what’s happening locally.  The noticeboard is now in place and I went round this morning to see what it looks like and I was very pleased with the design which works well in the area.

The trouble is that the borough council say that, although they have put one planter in place and have promised another one with plants in both of them, they have now run out of money to finish the work.  What a shame that something which would have made so much difference has been only half completed.
