Following years of neglect, with weeds growing in abundance through cracks in the footpaths and with large areas of broken tarmacadam the footpaths reflect a feeling of neglect, and of being rundown and shabby. I have looked at other areas of Broughton Pastures estate and in the main they do not appear to have been neglected to the same degree. I understand footpaths along Narbeth Drive near to the school were recently resurfaced.
