More red plastic than a children's toy box. The village is called Pityme and the roadworks are a local problem. Behind the photographer the road is totally closed causing long diversions and delays. This work was due to end before the peak summer holiday rush but according to local residents it is running behind schedule. It seems like the village is aptly named.
