Marple Aqueduct is the most beautiful and historic landmark in our area—a place where people walk, cycle, and bring their families to enjoy the beautiful scenery. It’s somewhere we’re all proud of. That’s why it’s so upsetting to see the continuing problem of illegal car and rubbish dumping.

This illegal dumping is not just an eyesore; it is damaging to the environment, unsafe for local wildlife, and completely out of keeping with the character of this historic location. 

Anyone who cares deeply about our town and its heritage, has a responsibility to speak up. We should all be able to enjoy Marple Aqueduct and the surrounding area without it being blighted by abandoned vehicles.

This petition is about protecting a place that means a lot to our community — a place that deserves care, respect, and proper management from those responsible for the land around it.

We are calling on the Canal and River Trust to act urgently to prevent further illegal dumping on their land.

Preserving the integrity and beauty of Marple Aqueduct is crucial for maintaining our community’s pride and for safeguarding the environment. We need to ensure this historic landmark remains a safe and welcoming place for everyone. Join us in demanding that the Canal and River Trust take immediate and effective action.

Please sign this petition to protect Marple Aqueduct and help maintain the beauty and safety of this cherished local treasure. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in our community.
