Carnalway fence removed

The high metal fence which has been a source of controversy at Carnalway for almost two years has been removed.

This follows a strong campaign by local people incensed at the blocking of a traditional right of way and amenity area, including a legal challenge.

The entrance to the area is now blocked by just a partial wooden fence, which, at the moment, does not hinder access to the riverbank amenity area.

This move is very welcomed by locals, especially with the summer months approaching soon.
