"Paul if Chettle Court residents are paying the unsubsidised rate from the commencement of their hire, then I suggest they should be referred to the Hillcrest example that I gave.

This evening on the way past the Central Library I noticed that a sign had been placed on one of the three very large trees outside the main body of the building explaining that it was to be removed because it was continuing to cause damage to the pavement and other solutions had proved useless.
