I'VE received a complaint about a large skip which has been parked and obstructing the pavement outside the former Leigh Scout hut at the corner of Henrietta Street and Union Street.
A visually impaired reader tells me that she was forced to walk in the road to avoid it.
She had a lucky escape because she was with her daughter, who warned her of the blockage, and she has hit at the lack of thought and consideration of such action.
I'd say it was probably on the pavement because permission has to be sought to place a skip in the road. However, it is a safety issue that should be noted.
