A village just outside London’s boundary is in urgent need of a bus service, a local councillor has warned, as authorities on either side of the border refuse to pay for one.

Netherne-on-the-Hill, in Surrey, is located just outside the London borough of Croydon, but despite its population of around 1,500 people, has no scheduled public transport links.
