Path crew seek storage

-

The Alvechurch Footpath Crew is appealing for somewhere near the centre of the village for them to store their equipment and materials.

The volunteers, who maintain stiles and gates and keep the footpaths of the parish clear, have been using a village centre garage rented by Alvechurch Parish Council.

But a wrangle over an extra padlock fitted to the garage door for security has seen both the council, which uses the garage to store the parish caretaker’s equipment, and the Footpath Crew facing eviction.

Paul Newby, of the Footpath Crew, told The Village he could not understand why one extra padlock was causing such a problem. He asked that anyone who could offer alternative premises call him on 0121 445 3801.
