A PLAYGROUND used by young children in Croxley Green is being littered with broken glass, cigarette butts and rubbish, according to concerned residents.

Angela Lieb, who lives in Croxley Green, said her husband and 22-month-old son found litter sprawled across the Barton Way park when they visited on Sunday.

"It saddens me and makes me very angry that people do not have more respect for a place which is meant to be for children," she said.

After emailing Three Rivers District Council with her complaint, Angela returned earlier this week to find some of the litter had been cleared.
