Howard I have seen it but is it dumped,the other problem is as it is on Private property the Council can not remove it,if it was on the pavement that is different.
If you knew what I know,we would both be in trouble!

thought that would be the case john, a real eyesore though so close to the town centre.
property owners should be forced to take responsibility.

Part of a recent news report concerning the hoarding of coins in Germany...
"...it is estimated that there is more than £42.9 million in loose change down the back of British sofas alone..."
Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

I guess that is one of the first places house-clearance men look, or up the chimney ! Or in a mattress!

Sofas and mattresses and other similar things can be a harbour for rats, so DDC should be able to collect it.
I've contacted them about it and included the photo.

DDC have come back and asked for the address and they will contact the owners - anyone know the address ?
If not I'll try and check today.

Since when does common sense prevail, they need the address so it can be fed into the satnav.

They know where Effingham is of course, just the number of the house where the sofa is.

they hardly need a house number it is visible from anyone walking past the town hall, the last house before priory street.
