A scheme to link a rural village to ultra-fast broadband has been stuck in the slow lane without a single property connected in three years.

Frustrated residents have been forced to endure endless roadworks and temporary traffic lights as trenches have been dug and telegraph poles erected in preparation for the big digital roll out in Stocksfield, Northumberland.

Projected dates to 'go live' have come and gone and many householders have now given up on the broken promises of high-speed 'full fibre' and invested in a satellite system or signed a new contract with their current telecoms provider.

It's been three years since Factco was awarded the contract to connect homes in Stocksfield under the government's Project Gigabit scheme and still no one knows when full fibre will actually be available.

Slow broadband speeds are something that many Brits are battling against, with some streets in the UK suffering with frustrating average speeds of just 0.6Mb.

Tim Hills, a parish councillor and local resident, has likened the speed of the roll out in Stocksfield to 'an arthritic snail climbing a hill.'
