CCTV could be installed in a village nature park to combat vandalism and “drug-taking”.
Little Chalfont Parish Council has applied for funding to install the cameras at Little Chalfont Nature Park, after a “small minority of young people” were found to have vandalised park furniture and bird boxes, and used the park for taking drugs.
A parish council spokesman said: “This causes distress to users and is stopping some from visiting the park. Actions, including visits by police officers, have failed to stop the problem.
“CCTV will go a long way to identifying the perpetrators and minimising, if not eliminating, the problem.
