A council is installing air quality monitors on a residential housing estate plagued by smoke.
Denbighshire Council has moved to buy the machine in a bid to establish what is in the smoke clouds which residents say have blighted Ruthin’s Glasdir estate for more than six months.
Last month one described how she and her young family had to keep windows closed because of the drifting fumes.
She also revealed how a monitor she’d bought to track the pollution advised she leave the area because the air quality in her home was so bad.
