A BLAENAU Ffestiniog man says he feels victimised after having his workshop vandalised nearly 80 times over the last 10 years.

Richard Lloyd Jones, 70, owns the empty R L Jones & Son Builders yard, which he claims has been the subject of on-going vandalism for a number of years which has left him feeling distressed and helpless.

Mr Jones said the incidents are now starting to affect his health and he feels as if he is being victimised.

He said: “This has been going on for years, I have reported each incident to the police but it’s not making any difference, I just don’t know what to do anymore.

“It is really upsetting, I haven’t been away anywhere for years as I worry about the place being vandalised constantly. Over the last 10 years it must be nearly 80 times it has been targeted now, maybe more.
