Gedling Borough Council have today put additional fencing around a sinkhole in a Carlton park and are warning people to keep away.
The sinkhole first appeared on playing fields next to the Richard Herrod Centre a few days ago with resident Tony Buckross capturing a picture – which was featured on Gedling Eye yesterday.
Now the council have put up additional fencing to help protect the public.
A spokesperson for Gedling Borough Council said: “We have put additional fencing (low-level crowd barriers) to further protect the area and erected signs to warn people to keep away.
“The hole that has appeared is about two foot in diameter and a similar depth. We have notified Severn Trent Water as the hole appears to be on the line of a water pipe. We are waiting for an update from Severn Trent Water”
