TIPPERS have forced the Forestry Commission to close a car park.
The commission, which manages Wombwell Wood, has closed the Woodhead Lane wood car park until further notice due to the high level of dumped rubbish there.
A notice has been pinned to the closed gate which reads: “This car park will be closed until further notice due to increased levels of unacceptable littering and flytipping. We will reopen it only when we have found a solution to these problems.”
No-one at Forestry Commission was available to comment.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
