Hi, I'm interested in a 70m2 part of my neighbours garden but neither of us have an idea of value. I think I could get it valued by a surveyor but as we're in the early stages I was wondering if there was a general price per square meter so we could get a ball park to see if its worth proceeding further? thanks

When I initially phoned the police (as in my first post) I didn't mention skin colour as it's totally irrelevant (other than for descriptive purposes). Having said that I'd be very disappointed though not that surprised to find out that the police dealt with this community in a different way to any another and held back from taking decisive action so as not to create a race issue. I think the bottom line though is that the police have very few resources or powers to deal with this sort of anti social behaviour and that's why youths get away with it, no matter where they live or what colour skin they have.

Well I was quite positive yesterday after speaking to the police as they reassured me they were tackling it but now I'm feeling pretty flat at its obvious the police aren't getting anywhere at all!

Well this has been going on for a while and the police don't seem to be any further in stopping it. I found this article in the Star from 10 months ago! http://www.thestar.co.uk/news/crime/yobs-still-plague-sheffield-suburb-1-6414261

Yes I think this has been going on for some time and I have heard of at least one mugging. There are cameras outside the cafe and I called in yesterday to enquire about looking at the footage but they are nothing to do with them and apparently owned by the council. He said he'd had lots of trouble with the gang hanging around and damaging the cafe. I mentioned the cameras to the police as they look like proper security ones and look right down on the corner.

Hi all, I cycle past here on my way home most afternoons and there's usually a gang of around 8 older teenagers hanging around. In the past they've shouted things and pretended to jump into the road but on Monday one through a full bottle at me. It hit my bike and caused me to have a bit of a wobble but I rode on. I called 101 and reported it then gave a statement and the police said they are aware of the gang as there have been reports of them intimidating passers by and throwing stones and fireworks but as yet haven't been able to gather enough evidence to make an arrest or prosecution. When the police arrive the gang just run off and the only descriptions they have are Asian males in dark hoodies. Anyway as I rode past tonight there were 3 of them there just stood throwing stones at cars so I phoned 101 again with better descriptions and they said they would act. The police were thankful of my complaint as they say the more they have, the more chance they have of allocating resources to tackle the issue so I was wondering if anyone has had any similar experiences that could strengthen the case? Thanks

Hi, went to Hope last week which was ok but thought it was a bit small and not many visitors, is Bakewell any bigger as we've still got stuff left over so are planning another tomorrow? ta
