PARISH councillors hoping for a new bus shelter on their village green have been told they may be getting the old one back.
People living in Sadberge, near Darlington, have asked Darlington Borough Council to provide a modern shelter for the centre of the village.
The authority is carrying out consultations but has suggested that an old wooden shelter that used to stand in the village should be re-used.
Parish councillor Malcolm Schott said people wanted a plastic shelter, without advertisements.
He said: "We don't want the old one, we just want a clear bus shelter."
A council spokeswoman said residents had until next Friday to make their views about the shelter known.
