Metal fencing has caused upset and outrage amongst residents in Frome, Somerset.  

The fencing, which has been installed either side of a public footpath that runs across the Rodden Lake Stream Meadow, restricts public access to the much loved fields - home to a variety of wildlife, flora and fauna.

St Helen's Primary School in Hartlepool found itself without two sections of its fence one morning thanks to particularly heartless thieves.  

Two 5 foot sections of the solid wooden fencing, worth around £400, were found missing by the school's caretaker while he was carrying out his usual checks one Tuesday morning.  

In a rather curious incident, an Elland man has recently been found guilty of stealing metal fencing belonging to the Network Rail and has been sentenced to a term in prison. Jason Stott, 41, was found by uniformed officers in the Lowlands Way area of Elland, presumably in the act. At the time, Stott denied the accusations, stating that he was instead planning on moving the metal fencing back as part of a larger construction plan.
