A HIGH school is to spend more than £100,000 on a new fence after the actions of neighbours and trespassers left their ‘security compromised’.
Bolton Council’s planning committee granted permission for St James High School, Farnworth, to install a 2.4 metre high metal security mesh fence, with gates at various points around the perimeter of their buildings and playing fields. Councillors heard many residents of Brindley Close and Highfield Road had access to the playing fields from the back of their homes, an area known as Dixon Green, and that they saw this as an ‘oasis’ of green space which they had enjoyed for years.
