A static caravan which was dumped on the verge of the main road in October is in the process of being removed, although no date has been set at this time.
As previously reported, people were calling for it to be removed from the carriageway but before the owner got around to it, it went up in flames, with 10 firefighters called to tackle it in the early hours of November 2.

Enquiries have been made and it is being treated as an arson attack, although no arrests have been made at this time.
The destroyed property will now be removed by National Highways and is due to be carried out imminently. It is likely to lead to a closure of the road while the work is carried out.
A spokesperson for National Highways said: “Legal notice for removal has been served, we’re currently assessing the requirements and will then instruct contractors to undertake the work, in what is likely to be carried out under a lane closure.”
