IN APRIL, two hideous black bus shelters were erected in Franklin Road, Headington, Oxford.

They were requested by Rye St Anthony School.

Neither the county council nor the school had the common courtesy to inform the residents directly of their intentions.

I am sure that for the few days that it will rain at 3.45pm in a school term, when a parent or a coach arrives to take the pupils home, the parents will provide their daughters with a mackintosh and umbrella.

The residents of Franklin Road have to see these ugly monstrosities which are spoiling our environment, 365 days of the year.

We want them removed.
