Conservative Councillors for Walkden South have demanded action after the former Walkden Library site on Memorial Road was left as a derelict mess.
The former library building has now been boarded up with wooden hoardings and is starting to attract anti-social behaviour. Local Councillors Nicky Turner (pictured), Les Turner and Iain Lindley visited the site this week and are extremely concerned. Cllr Lindley said:
“The building looks horrendous. It is already a prime site for anti-social behaviour - there have been numerous sightings in the last week or two of youths on the roof or trying to break in - and if action is not taken soon we run the risk of (at best) more anti-social behaviour and (at worst) the building being torched.”
Your local Conservative Councillors believe that the building should be brought back into community use - the Youth Service have long been interested in making use of the building.
