No, not able to find that one. But have a look at this, a view from the park down rhyddings street, note the gable end on the left and the missing house which would be the first one on park lane.

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

does it make any difference if you have a car or not , or are you trying to say if you don't own a car you have not got an opinion. Even if you live on the street.

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

No not at all, every resident living on "the street" car owner or not should have a say in what goes on, with regards to any alterations to footpaths or grass verges on "the street"

http://www.ossygobbin2003.fotopic.net/p4579133.html Just have a look at the photo in the link, think you will find it interesting, a very old photo showing the grass verges and trees in rhyddings street, they have been there a very long time.

There is an Ossy area council meeting on Tuesday 12th april at ossy town hall, on the agenda
is "Facilities for youngsters" (page 23 this weeks observer) This may have some effect on the park. If additional facilities are placed in the park, there may be an even bigger problem parking.:confused:

Looks like this is not gonna happen as suspected, The end of the tax year has come and gone, and the money will be allocated somewhere else......

Just wish they would actually cut the new grass...... or it will very soon look a mess...:(

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

I have been informed that the curb stones have arrived and are being put down.

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

Yet another lie by two of our Councillors.
We were told they would use the same stone as what is there already.
The stone that has been ordered is genuine authenic Oswaldtwistle india stone.
This is supposed to be a conservation area.

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

Park381 - I think you will find that the Area Council are not bothering about planning permission.
They have just ordered the stone and booked a contractor to do the work.

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

Neil what stone is it???

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

Indian Stone. As in from India.

It has been ordered but the gent in the highways department did not think it had been delivered yet to the contractors. I am waiting for him to phone me with some more information.

I will explain more if I see you later.

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

residents should not be cutting the grass theirselves this should be done by the council workers.

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

Your beloved Cllr Britcliffe himself said that he could not see the problem with residents cutting the grass.
He also said at the meeting we were all at that they would use reclaimed stone to match the original kerb stones.

Why do you think we should not cut the grass?
HBC don't bother to do it themselves.

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

Can not understand the mind set of people that would rather live in scruffy enviroment, than just going out and doing your bit for the local area .... cutting neglected grass or picking up litter......

Lets face it if we just sat back and moaned about all that the council is failing to do, We would get very SAD and still have the problem...

If everybody had more pride and concern about there locality, perhaps we could stop the rot......

Re: Widening Rhyddings Street
 

Point taken Uncle Simon :rolleyes:.

Neil has gone outside to sweep the footpath outside his house.
