BAD weather and flooding left a number of households across Maldon without a recycling collection on Thursday.

Homes in Poulton Close, Fitch’s Mews, Curling Tye Lane, Utling Lane, Crouchmans Farm Road, Hatfield Road, Spring Lane, Utling Hall Road and St John’s Court were all affected.

Maldon District Council said it was due to “access issues and weather conditions causing delays”.

Collections have been rescheduled for today.

People are asked to leave their recycling out and it will be collected.
