The unregulated burning of refuse has been going on at this site for years. The regular and continual burning of who-knows-what not only causes air polution, but also most likely causing contamination of the ground and water courses in the vicinity. At times, the smoke generated from this site is so thick as to cause road safety issues for motorists using New Road. Photos taken from almost 2 miles away in Mereclough.

Inappropriate Community Service on children's playground, 23rd March

Tue, 23 Mar 2021 12:44:34 +0000
53.777697 -2.218904

We visited Towneley playground today with our children, to inappropriately find 'community payback' workers litter picking on the children's playground but also playing on the children's equipment (zip line). It is inappropriate to have people convicted of crimes (regardless of the offence) to be carrying out community service on a children's playground. It is reasonable for community service to be carried out in other areas of Towneley, such as car parks etc - away from the playground, and the playground upkeep be left to paid staff or volunteers (not community service). Whilst it is not unreasonable for them to have a bit of 'down time' and enjoy the facilities (if age/size appropriate), it is not reasonable for them to be playing on children's equipment with children around whilst in the process of carrying out community service unsupervised. There was a supervisor in the surrounding vicinity, however he was a considerably distance away, out of site, away from the playground area near the toilets, staring off the bridge into the river, not supervising anyone....
