I heard about it, it’s just kids they tend to be about 10-14 years old, it’s sad. I read about the gardens this morning, it doesn’t surprise me. I keep hearing a lot of things about it in Cotgrave. I think they’ve nothing to do. It feels there’s something different going on in Cotgrave. I’m just going by hear say. I think they take a lot of pride in the garden - they’ve got gates they lock and for them to climb over, it’s sad.
Adam McGlen, has witnessed the youths entering the gardens. The 28-year-old said: “I saw the kids climbing out of there, it would have been last Wednesday. I just saw them climb.”Another local resident who gave the name Amy, told Nottinghamshire Live that it’s a nightmare. The 36-year-old said: “I see them go through, they go through the fence. It’s at certain times, around six. I only see them climbing in, they do probably leave all the rubbish.
