I AM very concerned about the ragwort weed which has invaded the land around Rawcliffe Lake.

It grows among the trees and in the very long grass which is badly in need of cutting.

The ragwort has already started to seed, so unless council workmen do something quickly to root out this horrific weed we won't be able to see Rawcliffe Lake by next year because the view will be totally obscured.

This weed, together with a much-needed bin for dog waste, several missing benches, lots of litter and broken glass, are spoiling what was once a lovely area.
