IN REPLY to Cllr E Adam (HAS, March 11), it is not just Aycliffe’s greens and grass verges that are unsightly in the West Ward.

He needs to take a look at the Burn area, which has been reported to him on many occasions and has yet to be tidied up.

As a county councillor for West Ward, who says he regularly walks around the place, he needs to walk down Stephenson Way and see the damage done to the grass verges by cars illegally parked. He will be able to see clearly which houses and cars are doing the damage.

Then he can talk to them or report them for the damage that has been done.

Mrs M Gray, Newton Aycliffe.
