A county councillor has raised concerns over unsightly scaffolding erected in the aftermath of Storm Arwen.
The scaffolding was put up to facilitate repairs to a number of buildings on Front Street in Prudhoe - but five months after one of the worst storms in living memory, the scaffolding remains up.
Coun Gordon Stewart, who represents Prudhoe South on Northumberland County Council, is concerned that the structure could be having an impact on trade - and believes local businesses are also worried.
