Sobre IBD

When the first orange cone appeared on Hall Road, nobody expected a year-long siege. The Siege of Elsenham - 2025: A Year Under the Cones follows one Essex village as bureaucracy, roadworks and sheer absurdity close in. Told with wit and heart by Martin Foskett, it’s a gonzo chronicle of tunnels, tea, and tenacity - where neighbours, pigeons, and one heroic ferret turn frustration into folklore. A true story of community spirit surviving modern madness.
