Chesterfield Discussion / Accident at the Chesterfield Hotel
« on: July 30, 2012, 07:29:43 PM »
There seemed to have been an accident on the little roundabout by the Chesterfield Hotel at about 11am today :. Police cars and ambulance (and a taxi) and someone lying by the roundabout but obviously having been made "comfortable". No panic at all. Does anyone know if the person, maybe a pedestrian was/is ok? :(

Does anyone know what's happening at the local recycling areas? They seem to be being done away with. Noticed last week that the one on Loundsley Green had gone and today saw that the one at Holme Hall had disappeared too. Is it anything to do with the blue bins?
