A cone is continuously placed on Church Street to the rear of the Fox and Hound. It's obviously strategically placed to reserve parking. There is an entrance to a Fox and Hound storage area from the street however the cone is placed adjacent to it. This has been going on for approximately two weeks now. The cone was once moved so we could park outside our home which we are well within our right to do so and the cone was then moved to be touching our car.
