I was contacted by residents about the amount of debris on the beach at Beach Crescent. The attached picture was taken when the tide was quite far in but you wouldn’t know if from the spoil floating on top. I raised the matter with the council’s environment department as there is usually an annual clean up of the beach. I have been advised that the level of debris is not uncommon at this time of year due to the higher spring tides and winter run-off into the river from upstream. Clearance work is planned for the week of 16 March.
