Has anyone else noticed the state of the smart bench at the bottom of Queensthorpe? Good idea in theory but now looking an ugly and dirty state after just after year of installation.
Underneath the bench is filthy, the wooden bench damaged, the paintwork now peeling and the structure rusting and now covered in lurid green advertising.
This bench was originally installed without planning permission by the councils own contractor and now has advertising without planning consent and this is within a Conservation area.
