The majority of the plants used in the hanging baskets and towers at Tykeside Gardens are ‘Surfinias’, a trailing range of petunias. We have found these make a reliable eye- catching display.” Dog Control Orders Phillimore Recreation Ground is one of • Failing to remove dog faeces. the most popular areas for dog walkers. • Failing to put a dog on a lead when The majority of the dog walkers who directed to do so. use this area are responsible and not only clean up after their dogs, but • Allowing a dog to be in an area of ensure they are suitably under control. exclusion, including fenced and Due to a number of incidents recorded unfenced play areas, sports courts by Aldenham Parish Council (APC), and marked out sports pitches. of a small minority of dog walkers not We are aware that owners allow their cleaning up after their dog, or keeping dogs off the lead at the recreation area it under control, we will be enforcing during the football season.
