Nuisance off road bikes

Not only is this illegal, it is causing a lot of noise nuisance to local residents and damage to crops in the fields. Criminal damage has also been caused to a large metal fence which has then allowed them access.

The farmer will be liaised with regarding replacing the broken fencing and patrols in the village will be increased to target the individuals taking part in this activity.  

If anyone has any information in relation to this issue, please don't hesitate to contact police on 101 or online through the website.
