A WOMBWELL resident's monkeying around has caused quite a stir in the town.
Kelvin Shaw, who lives on Hemingfield Road, first placed a life size monkey in his garden tree a month ago - and since then, passers-by have been spotting it, hanging from a branch 30ft up in the air.
Kelvin said a friend helped him put the monkey up by abseiling from the top of the tree.
Have you noticed the Wombwell monkey?
