I AM a long term resident – 34 years – of Gorse Covert.

I totally agree with K Butter, Gorse Covert has never been as scruffy as it is on the stretch of road mentioned in his letter.

Weeds are growing out of the pavement, overhanging on the road and growing along the side of the road.

Some residents’ gardens are shameful.

The council in my opinion should tell them or charge them.

We are paying the highest council tax in Warrington.
