Environment
Monday 25 January: remove of street furniture around the War Memorial. Tuesday 26 January: removing cobbles Wednesday 27 January: removal of first lot of cobbles from site Thursday 28 January: A beautiful, crisp winter morning in Wendover. More old pedestrian surface is being removed from the Manor Waste and the market is in full swing. Friday 29 January: More debris being taken away from site

The work scheduled for week one of the refurbishment of the Manor Waste was scheduled as “excavation/disposal”. One photo per day gives a flavour of the action.

The surface from the refurbishment, which took place at the time of Queen Elizabeth II’s Silver Jubilee (1977), was never designedto take the traffic and footfall it now gets so a new subbase and surface will be installed. Some pedestrians also found the cobbles very difficult to negotiate.
