Dear Madam, - This has to be one of the most dastardly acts ever by the present establishment. A man is hounded because he has had the ingenuity to adapt an outbuilding on his farm into a bachelor pad for his own private use. Also to threaten that ‘they’ have not finished with him yet. Where, oh where, are our human rights?

Compare this tidy, unobtrusive little house on private land with the openly visible rubbish dump in Lisbellaw village, an eyesore and an insult to the local population. An environmental disaster for the last 30 odd years.

Thanks to ‘Fair Play’ for exposure of the local Planning Service in his letter last week. See also Neil Oliver’s letter in same paper regarding the Dickensian N.I. Executive.

Yours faithfully, Mabel Goodall The Cottage, Lisbellaw
