RAMPAGING pigs have put a stop to gay sex trysts in a picturesque wood on the outskirts of Coventry.
Farmer Richard Fonge became so exasperated by the sordid shenanigans in the shady dells of Roughknowles Wood, off Crackley Lane, near Kenilworth, that he agreed to unleash a couple of dozen Tamworth porkers.
In addition he’s felled a row of about 30 beech trees, erected steel fences, barbed wire, and a number of ‘Private Keep Out’ signs.
The 64-year-old, who lives at Hurst Farm, just north of the wood, said he was “mightily relieved” that the trespassers had now been flushed out after a long-standing battle.
The area, which boasts some of the most exclusive homes in the area, first became a venue for sleazy assignations 15 years ago.
He now believes that those responsible have migrated to nearby Crackley Wood, which is owned by Warwickshire County Council.
The Telegraph revealed in 2005 how Mr Fonge had made repeated efforts to stop people entering the farmland.
The dad-of-two had become so outraged, after finding a makeshift bed and used condoms, that he placed tree trunks where Cryfield Grange Road meets Crackley Lane, to try to deter men from parking up.
