A homeowner who built an ‘awful’ blockade on his road to stop school-run parents pulling up in front of his house now plans to turn a massive pothole into a lake.
Derek Woodacer has annoyed neighbours in Mosley Common, Tyldesley, with his schemes and homemade road-blocking measures, but says that he 'doesn't care' and claims that their disdain just makes him 'more determined to carry on'.
The 65-year-old dug a huge pothole in the road after a barricade that he built was removed and he says that he will now make it into a lake. Derek referred to the planned installation as 'Lake Como-nside' as a tongue-in-cheek nod to one of his favourite holiday destinations - Lake Como in Italy.
