Mistley Quay campaigners fight to have ‘eyesore’ fence removed

Hundreds of campaigners gathered on a quay to ask for an “eyesore” fence to be removed in a 15-year dispute.

The metal fence was erected in 2008 at Mistley Quay, in Essex, by landowners TW Logistics over fears people could fall into the water.

Simon Bullimore from Free The Quay said the fence was an “obstruction”.

Essex County Council said it had no enforcement powers to remove the fence. TW Logistics has been approached for comment.

The 1.8m (5ft 11in) high fencing was put up at the waterside following concerns of enforcement action by the Health and Safety Executive.
