I WONDER if any other of your readers are troubled by the problem that persists in the Little Harwood area of Blackburn?

For quite some time, there has been a most unpleasant smell in the vicinity of Laburnum Road/Lilac Road/Providence Street. It is a most unpleasant smell, something like cat urine, but seems to have a chemical aspect to it.

If it is a chemical, then we should be more concerned, as there are a large number of children who play in that area.
