PLANS may be put into action to create a new kickabout area for youngsters in Winyates.

The neighbourhood group has a £1,600 budget and at its meeting last week, examined 10 green areas chosen for their potential for games.

Some have been discarded as unsuitable but residents decided that a kickabout area, including goalposts, was a good idea.

But there are some reservations about attracting a 'yob element' and Councillor Clive Cheetham said residents would need to be consulted eventually.
