Large, black hole. Owner required.

Would anyone like to claim a large black hole that has appeared on Biddulph Road?

Our first hunch - a two letter phrase beginning with the letter "T" and ending with "Water" - does actually seem to be correct (I know, were were surprised too). No utility companies are claiming it and the builders working close by on Biddulph Mansions aren't either.

The hole appeared several weeks ago and we've been watching it ever since. There doesn't seem to have been any work on it for a number of days which simply isn't acceptable.

Council officers will be keeping a close eye on the works until someone appears to claim them. If you can shed any light on it e-mail us on maidavale@maidavaleconservatives.com

We'll keep you updated.
