UNFORSEEN PROBLEM

The theft of the postbox near the junction of Birch Avenue and Almong Grove, Brigg, is creating unforseen problems.
After it was stolen, the Royal Mail revealed it would not be erecting a replacement, which was bad news in itself, if you live on the Newlands of Chartdale estates, as you now have to walk, or drive, much further to post your letters.
However, Coun Ann Eardley (pictured, who lives on Newlands, has revealed that now there's no postbox to get in the way, some impatient drivers are cutting the corner, across the grass verge.
I haven't heard any complaints from residents who feel the postbox should have been replaced. But that's not to say people aren't unhappy about the situation.
If you feel pressure should be put on the authorities to install a new one, please post a comment below, with your name and address, or email nigel.fisher@gsmg.co.uk
