Ledbury Recycling Centre remains unchanged as to opening times, despite the introduction of winter opening hours for recycling centres elsewhere in the county.

Except for Ledbury, all other Herefordshire re-cycling centres are closing at 4pm on the days they are open.

The Ledbury site remains open for pre-booked vehicles only, from 8am to 6pm on Wednesday and Saturday, and from 9.30am to 1pm on a Sunday.

A council spokesman said: "It is important that residents continue to book slots to visit a Household Recycling Centre where required.

"This can be done online or, for those unable to book online, by contacting the Herefordshire Council customer services team on 01432 260051, who will book a slot for you. The household recycling centres are only open to Herefordshire residents, and the booking system is in place to ensure the safety of staff by controlling numbers of visitors."
