Vandalism in our field. Here, a park bench has been forcibly removed from its location and thrown over our hedge into the former tennis courts. Only a few weeks before, a memorial bench had been uprooted and dumped in the lily pond. The CCTV cameras in the park are switched off as part of the funding cuts from central government. Looks like this sort of thing may become more prevalent as parks revert to the no-go areas that they were in the 80’s and 90’s as budgets are cut. 🙁
