I HAVE lived at this address for 26 years and brought up a family here, so I was astounded to find that the council have put up a "No Ball Games" sign right in the middle of our "green" on Bankfield Close, Ainsworth.
No-one asked the residents for their views, so I assume this was the idea of some small-minded person who doesn't have children.
The "green" is an ideal play area for our children. It is safe and secure and all the mums know that their kids are not going to come to any harm while playing there. There isn't any bad behaviour, just good honest fun being enjoyed by our kids.
How dare the council plonk this post in a great big concrete base, ruining our local amenity, without so much as a by-your-leave? I think it is disgusting that we were not consulted.
LAURA BARKER (Mrs),
Broomfield Close,
Ainsworth.
