I AM writing to voice my disgust at how scruffy Gorse Covert and Birchwood is starting to look.

The grass gets cut and the cuttings are left to rot.

The wild flowers are nothing more than weeds.

The kerbs have weeds growing abundantly in them and as you walk around, the passageways are overgrown with nettles and brambles making it difficult to pass, especially when you have children in tow.

The stretch of road from Birchwood Forest Park to the One Stop shop is so overgrown and looks very untidy.

I have lived in this area for more than 30 years and never have I seen it so unloved.

Come on Warrington Borough Council.

What are we paying our council taxes for?
