Why not take a slightly longer drive around Whitehaven and Cumbria and post some positive things about our beautiful county.You decided to highlight this one little housing estate that has lost a lot of houses to subsidence and is stuck halfway up a hill...why? You`ve got a car and a camera and nothing better to do so make something interesting...no one wants to take a tour around a tiny,northern housing estate.

Greenbank isn't as bad as it used to be, same as the worst parts of Woodhouse like the blocks of flats and Fell View Avenue have been demolished.

greenbank is shit

[emmabemma83]

What a load of shit... First of all, the drug dealing doesn't take place at the park, they usually take place at peoples houses, second of all, Greenbank hasn't really been all that bad over the last few years, it used to be. Someone seriously needs updated!!!

I'm visiting Whitehaven soon for the first time hopefully, as I have got to know some lads from there really well. Most of them live on Greenbank, so I'll be going there to see them. I'll make a video myself and put it on here to show how much of a cock you really are. Oh and Mountainmarsh1, would you like to try and correct any spelling mistakes or punctuation perchance, or would you rather not try to be a smart ass towards someone that obtained an O level in English language at the age of 19?

OK beagchic, you were a kid, however, you are now aware that you and your parents lived in 'similar', so empathy shouldn't be beyond you. Re your questions, I don't live in the environment, so can't really comment. My initial point was an objection to the immature video makers who haven chosen to portray Greenbank in the mocking way they did. I have no gripe with you, although I would be interested in evidence to back up claims of 'nutter' bus and people who 'live in their own sh1t'.

I Live on kells, whitehaven is a shite hole, I left my garage door open for 5 minutes and my bike gets stolen, you have to wade through syringes up the brow .

beagchic. If you were born and brought up in a similar environment surely you should have more empathy? Why didn't your parents do something about it? You will find that the vast majority are decent hardworking people. The state of Mirehouse isn't pretty I agree with that, however, to tar all with the same brush is just wrong. Like most large estates country wide, the small minority of 'morons' spoil it for the rest. It's a difficult social problem but it isn't unique to Mirehouse or Greenbank.
