Since the opening of angling after the initial lockdown the club has installed two extra toilets to cope with the increase in anglers. These were located at the Silver End Pits and for the first time at the Layer Marney complex.
The Layer Marney toilet was burnt down on the night of Wednesday 23rd September 2020 only a week away from when it was due for removal. This arson crime has been reported to the police.
I appeal to anyone who saw anything that could lead to the culprits being apprehended to contact me.
Regarding the Layer Marney toilet, the club will have to pay the cost of the destroyed toilet as they cannot be insured. The saddest part of this sorry saga is that we cannot risk installing another toilet at Layer Marney next season.
