Madam,

I hope the mindless morons who set fire to the bench in Mary Stevens Park, will reflect on the consequence of their actions.

Not only was it dangerous beyond belief (as it was next to one of the wooden huts facing the croquet green which could have caused a much bigger fire, if it had gone up in flames too) it has caused a toxic mess for people to walk through.

 It will have a knock on effect on cost - clean up, replacement, labour etc.. and will add extra pressure to local finances which are needed elsewhere.

So well done, hope you thought it was a good night's work.
