The Wall is Safe

The wall that made up part of the old stone bridge at the entrance to Langley Park, sitting just beneath Dean Street, is a cause for concern for many locals.


We can be reassured by Andy Niven - Head of DCC Countryside Service - who wrote:
"I am aware of this bit of wall - it is part of the former bridge and an engineer inspected it for me about a month ago. He is confident it needs no immediate work but advises, if we aren't going to undertake any works in the foreseeable future, that we re-point it. As the wall will be part of the work we hope to do at this location to create an entrance feature and improve the Railway Path crossing, I don't propose to undertake any immediate works. However, Mark Oliphant is keeping a professional eye on the situation and we will carry out any necessary work if the situation changes."
