Anger over sex site near Puttenham village in Surrey

  • Published

Villagers want a lay-by leading to a Surrey beauty spot closed because it has become a popular place for adults to meet for outdoor sex.

About 300 people have signed a petition calling for the closure of the A31 lay-by to restrict access to Hogs Back.

Villagers in nearby Puttenham said the fields were used "for all sorts of sexual activity", even during the day.

Surrey County Council said it had installed CCTV and was working with police to tackle the problem.

A spokeswoman said one option was to restrict access for motorists by closing the lay-by, but doing so could damage the trade of a nearby cafe.

The villagers' campaign is being supported by Anne Milton, the Conservative MP for Guildford.
