At the last Friends meeting someone asked if the clock could be reset on the light because it now goes off one hour earlier than before the clocks changed. He stated that with the light going off early more people are congregating around the playground. A couple of members of the neighbourhood watch said there were less numbers around the play area than before the light. Personally I would like to see the whole park lit along the paths etc. I am very concerned about the safety of people walking their dogs during darkness, which is very early at this time of year.
Did the people you spoke with have any ideas for an improvement Gayle? What about CCTV on the play area? The bowling green is now covered by CCTV.
I was talking with our local police beat manager last Sunday, he informed me he has made several arrests in the park over the last few weeks. Not only local Oswaldtwistle youths but also some from Clayton-le-Moors.
