SIR: I refer to the renovation of homes in the Halliwell district. Residents of Hill Top were promised 25 years ago that this being a conservation area, would be transformed and the face-lift would consist of a miniature village.

Higher Halliwell evidently is of no concern to this council apart from collecting the Council Tax.

Mrs E M Smith

Hill Top, Higher Halliwell, Bolton
