Elephant and Castle hotel Newtown Powys,
update on the accident of 1.2.12 well I know its 2012, does the Castle management?
as an OAP I can ill afford to lose a £1500.00 100x400 telescopic lens , my hobby is wildlife photography, which is only possible by walking around. the path where I slipped is a public path I suppose its owned by the local council and as a resident and taxpayer and a heavy rates payer in Newtown I should be able to walk about without fear of injury due to neglect of proper maintenance by the Castle hotel. I walk along the river severn path at least 4 times a week looking and photographing things that take my fancy ironically on the day of the accident I was photographing Ice forms on the river as a main topic of the days blog. see http://wildaboutwales.us/wp/?p=302

On these paths along the river severn its bad enough having to look where one goes with all the dog shit ,,pollution of the river is also of concern even though I have sent the river board photos of the pollution nothing has been done its still as bad as when I reported it and where it comes from. what puzzles me is this hotel acting as if we live in the 17th century with open sewage and kitchen waste being thrown in the street,
as soon as I reported to the bar woman a few hours later the sink waste pipe had been moved,
no one has been back to me from the council. so now I have to find a lawyer to fight my case, more expense and is it worth the hassle. I have made an appointment to see one of our local solicitors" Paul" and have an appointment at 9.00 am next friday , so will go from there as to what I do. All I want to know

Who holds the liability??? the hotel that decided the easiest route for kitchen waste is to put it in the water outlet drains,, the river authority for not doing anything , or the council for not doing anything even though one of their workers has to have seen this affluent going to the river,
 |
| 3.2.12 The rooks are scavenging the kitchen waste, |
 |
| water culvert to the path leading to St Mary"s church and the old peoples flats of St Mary's close |
 |
| Raw kitchen waste running into the culvert |
 |
| inlet drain of the culvert |
 |
| the waste coming out of the flute in the flood barrier wall |
 |
| Here I lifted the flute cover and its full of fat solids these flutes act as a plug to stop rising river water entering the higher level |
 |
| the frozen sewage water on the lower path |

E mail sent to the council 3 hours after I damaged my camera lens.on the Ice,
 4:17 PM (16 minutes ago) | | |||
I have recently returned from Egypt where I lived for several years, and this affluent is as bad as anything I saw in that third world country,
I had rather a bad accident today smashing my lens and damage to the lens, due to pollution from the Castle hotel Newtown. I walked the whole length of the public path along the Severn river and on this one place I slipped , this is kitchen waste as the photos will show on http://photowales.blogspot.

I walked in the hotel asked for the manager, and a very rude woman said to go away I have no time,
I said you will have time when I report the pollution to the water board. I came home at 1.00
and then went to the council office at the bus terminus to report the accident as it was on one of the council paths. only to be told nothing to do with us . report it to You the environmental health, then I went to take more photos of the offending area which is adjacent to the hotel on the footpath to St Marys church ( a higher level to the offending river path)
tomorrow I will be going to see a solicitor after all the negativity I have received thus far, my tel no, is 88888888888
