More Mindless Vandalism (not the council plans this time)

The yobs have been at it again, an email has been sent by a supporter to the Police and copied to the council, let's hope they are considering all the problems with yobs when they decide whether to introduce grazing, we dread to think of the harm they could do to animals or the damage they will do to the fencing.

One good thing that has come out of the councils silly plans is the Bryn Users Association, hopefully by working with the Police and council something can be done to stop the yobs.

Dear Cheryl,

I believe Alun Jones has been in touch with you previously about fires at the Bryn. Last night(Saturday), in the lower meadow next to the black seat there was another party with many Strongbow cans about and branches SAWN from the trees in the area to make a fire, they even took a saw with them, which they left behind and I now have. It was discovered early Sunday morning by a Bryn Users Association walker, who contacted me and told me he had removed the cans and hidden the saw in the bushes.I went up with my camera and took the attached pictures. The culprits obviously came down via Aled Drive, as there were Strongbow cans in the street, and a tree branch cut down on the path from Aled Drive to the Bryn.

Some of the branches cut down were from healthy trees which obviously would not burn. This has become a regular occurrence every summer now, but unfortunately we only discover the carnage next day. About 2/3 years ago the same thing happened, but on that occasion they sawed down trees and bushes in Aled Drive gardens in the night on the way down, on that occasion I went around with PC Nigel McLaughlin assessing the damage.We keep stressing to the Council the danger of following up their plans to put fencing and animals in the very same area, to no avail so far, had there been fencing in the area I am sure they would have had a lovely bonfire, not to mention the danger and terror to the animals, as the last group that lit fires up there had Bull-terrier type dogs with them.If I can be of assistance to you or you want the saw please contact me.

Regards
