Works taking place below Beechfield Avenue
The site is part of a former refuse tip. A notice explains that "the works we are carrying out on this site are associated with the installation of a landfill gas protection barrier similar to those already in place in the area. This will improve the condition of the neighbouring land by impeding the migration of landfill gases. The completed works will have very little visual impact and include the formation of improved habitat areas for reptiles and birds."
