RESIDENTS' DISMAY OVER ASSOCIATION WITH SHAMED BROTHER OF KING
Prince Andrew Drive in Telford, and left Andrew Mountbatten Windsor
RESIDENTS living in a Midland street named after former prince Andrew want the name changed amid the royal scandal.
The King stripped his younger sibling of his Prince and Duke of York titles after the continued public outcry over his connections with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and sexual assault claims, and Andrew, who denies the allegations, has agreed to move out of his 30-room home.
A number of roads across the country are named after Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, including Prince Andrew Drive in Malinslee, Telford, Prince Andrew Road in Maidenhead, Prince Andrew Road in Broadstairs, Kent, and Prince Andrew's Road in Norwich.
Telford & Wrekin Council said it does not propose to change the name of Prince Andrew Drive "given the costs involved", but added it will continue to listen to residents' views.
