It has been brought to the Council’s attention that some people are leaving books and bric-a-brac at the bus shelter in Horsham Lane. While Councillors appreciate the gesture is well-meaning especially during this current pandemic, the Council cannot guarantee that this is not contributing to the spread of the virus. Residents are requested not to leave items at the bus stop. Planning i.
