Sharon Swandale: “There was nothing wrong with the native British trees planted 15 years ago when it was last done; they were just starting to look beautiful. Hopefully, this is real stone and won’t get vandalised!”

Philip Stubbings: “I live nowhere near this roundabout but as a regular user of the A303 near Amesbury I know of a few lumps of rock left in a field that would be ideal to finish it off. Please feel free to collect.”

Susan Rigg: “Well, the only good thing might be that you can at least see partially round the roundabout now. Those bushes were a nightmare!”

Tim Arnold: “If it’s funded by sponsorship how can it be a waste of money? Surely it’s for the sponsor to decide that. It’s better than looking at a concrete circle that’s for sure or an old boarded-up run-down pub on the other entrance to the town.”

Malcolm Triggs: “Blimey – do you lot never stop moaning? What’s wrong with adding a bit of interest and colour to the town?”

Mike Mason: “I think it rocks.”

Mark Steeple: “Great idea. Anything to improve the look of the place can only be a good thing.”

Robert Harris: “They should put a sun dial in the middle and call it ‘Rock Around the Clock’.”

Peter Pope: “This is ABC recycling... Knock the town to pieces, then put the spoils in a pile on roundabouts.

Emma Kellar: “My first thought is what happens when someone crashes into it and one of the stones falls on top of said car.”

Suzanne Hearne: “Hideous.” On KentOnline, you said:

EdS: “Anything to improve the appearance of Ashford is a positive thing.”

Mummybear1976: “I hope they’ve anchored those rocks really well because some joker will be sure to come along with a digger.”

Pab_Low: “How long before someone comes flying down the hill and ploughs into them? I give it six months.”
