RESIDENTS of a market town have been left fuming

RESIDENTS of a market town have been left fuming after council workers clumsily daubed a set of historic cobble stones with double yellow lines.

The stones, in St Mary’s Place, Stamford, Lincs, were laid in the Georgian era but have been defaced by the workmen's messy paint job.

James Tweedle, 33, who lives nearby, said: “It’s absolute incompetence from the council.
