Regeneration of Townfoot site in Langholm

We want Mr Welsh to level and grass the area and to maintain the site to a satisfactory standard for the duration of his ownership.

Why is this important?

Mr Willie Welsh of Welcare Homes was planning to build a care home and sheltered housing on a site at the southern end of Langholm. He had the site dug out and foundations laid but was then unable to proceed with building works. The site has been left in a terrible mess for some years, which he has of yet refused to reinstate to its former condition.
This is to the detriment of Langholm residents and visitors to the town.
Action originally started by residents living next to the site, has broadened in to a community wide campaign.
Langholm is worth more than the current treatment by businessmen living outside its bounds who do not have to suffer the every day implications to residents and the local tourism industry.
