Her previous home in Barton Hill was surrounded by playing fields where she could let her energetic young son run about safely.

Her old flat also had lifts making it easier for her as a single mother to carry her son and her shopping home.

The new housing zone has no grass play area suitable for children and no separate pavements leaving Lorna to play chicken with cars each time she leaves her flat.

She questions why a new estate has failed to give pedestrians priority and is concerned an ambulance or fire engine will not be able to get past parked cars if there was an emergency.

Also puzzling is why there are no facilities to recycle waste.
