The Roundabout, Leek

The roundabout at the bottom of Derby street Leek, a hot topic in the town at the moment due to plans for a new road lay out that would see the end of this, one of the towns major landmarks. There is a public vote on the 06/01 to decide if the plans get the go ahead.

I would love to see the roundabout stay, it is a unique feature in a town that is getting over run by chain stores and letting its old buildings decay in to ruin (see Saturdays post 08/01).
