Council accused of ‘class war’ after resurfacing road on a once divided wall from rich to poor

A council has been accused of reigniting a ‘class war’ after only resurfacing the posh end of a street - to the spot where a wall once divided council houses from the rich. The suburban street is one long road split into two ends - where the wealthy Wentworth Road meets the more down at heel Aldrich Road. The developer who built the road and the estate in 1934 put a wall keep them apart - and even put spikes on the top. Following a row with Oxford City Council the wall was taken down 60 years ago in Sunnymead, Cutteslowe, Oxon.
