More Vandalism

Following our shocking revelation of the state of Llanbeblig, a concerned member of the public contacted us here at COL to inform us of more vandalism at "Afon Bach" with runs between Llanberis Road and Maesincla. We visited the site of the old bridge only to find that vandals had demolished work recently completed to the walls each side of the bridge.

More damage was seen further up the pathway leading towards Ysgol Maesincla. The path was also covered in litter and seems to be a regular meeting point for undesirables.

We spoke with Gwynedd Councillor Huw Edwards who explained to us that he had recently overseen the repair work done by the council. He was shocked to learn that all the work had been in vain and would be visiting the site this week to see what could be done.

Here are the photos for you to see for yourselves what has been going on.
