This path cost us thousands of pounds just a few weeks ago. Now it has bushes growing across it and is waterlogged. The only people using this are the youngsters on motorcycles who IBC are determined to keep out. Click on these two links here, http://static.flickr.com/71/154362094_8cce62e20f_b.jpg

We are being stung for GBP 100K a year for this sort of nonsense and I for one will want to see the councils accounts this year. Under the FoI act I haved discovered that GBP 119K was paid to a Mr Tip who lives in Holland for 55 acres of Bridgewood in 1990 and 17 months later GBP 75K was paid to The Greyhound Bank of Deleware USA for another 11 acres that had a tenant at the time. Why was IBC paying money to a Deleware Bank that was defunct less than two years later? I think it would make more sense if the 11 acres with a tenant had been sold for less per acre than Bridgewood but who is going to check now? Unfortunately Stan Bird has passed away long ago and as he owned some land in that area I cannot ask him what he done with it or how planning permission was granted for the plot of land he owned at the end of Clapgate Lane. Incidently I still have my computer and the policeman who was threatening to take it away has today mailed me saying I must not contact him again via e-mail:-)
