Cllr Wheeler told Gedling Eye: “The path was owned by the Crown Estate and neglected so we asked Gedling Borough Council to look at the legal issues around ownership, with a view to adopting the path and repairing it and this work has now been carried out

“We have also asked that Gedling Borough Council look into the ownership of the disputed path between Birchfield Road and Elm Grove, with a view to getting this path repaired.  

The councillors also had a dilapidated garage on Elm Grove removed which residents said was attracting ASB issues.

One resident who didn’t want to be named, said: “It was hilarious to see the usual suspects turn up to the garage and look bemused as their spliff den had gone”.
