SIR: Today I had an interesting experience. I visited the filthiest car park in Britain. I waded through bottles, cans and litter to the Pay and Display box, then exited onto barely lit, cluttered stairs, smelling as they had obviously been used as a public lavatory. I did not have the courage to use the quite disgusting graffiti covered lift.
The path to the road was thick with pigeon droppings and feathers. This was on a dry day, what it must be like in the wet can be imagined.
Is the Bow Street car park a candidate for the Guinness Book of Records, and are the natives of Bolton top of the league of Litter Louts?
