Patient residents of a south Shropshire town have taken up cudgels to demand action after waiting nearly 11 years for their historic town wall to be rebuilt.
Patient residents of a south Shropshire town have taken up cudgels to demand action after waiting nearly 11 years for their historic town wall to be rebuilt. A petition started by Sheena Wieckowicz of the town's recently launched residents group calls on the "proud residents" of the town to "demand action on this matter". Campaigner and residents' group leader Darren Childs says that waiting nearly 11 years for part of the town wall to be fixed is "ridiculous".
Since holding a group public meeting earlier in the month members have raised the issue at a meeting of Ludlow Town Council. A statement from the council was issued in response last week which Mr Childs says is a sign that the town council is "feeling the pressure from the residents for action". But Mr Childs says the town wall issue should now be the subject of a public meeting in March where points can be raised in public
