Two of the dog-waste bins on the Roehampton Cricket Pitch area at the junction of Telegraph Road and Wildcroft Road have disappeared. One might have suspected vandals but not only have the bins disappeared, but the posts have been removed and the ground made good again. Not the work of your average vandal.
The bins were installed in the area in response to many complaints from local residents about dog-waste in the area. Either someone out there doesn't like them and has decided to take matters into their own hands and remove them or perhaps someone thought they would come in handy for their own use somewhere else. Either way, the loss of these bins will be considered as theft and if it is discovered who removed them, legal action will follow.
The Wimbledon and Putney Commons Conservators are a registered charity. They run on a limited budget and funds are stretched to ensure the Commons remain a safe and secure place for people to use. It will cost us several hundreds of pounds to replace these bins and if you have any information about their removal, please do contact the Ranger's Office on 020 8788 7655 or by e-mail rangers.office@btconnect.com
