Local councillors have slammed vandals who caused damage to a play park in Tenby.

The town clerk told members of the town council at their meeting on Tuesday night that damage had been caused to equipment at the recently opened Jubilee toddler park overlooking the South Beach.

"A couple of the swings were damaged over the weekend, which was very disappointing," said Mr. Andrew Davies, who explained that he had already ordered replacement parts.

Meanwhile, Clr. Mike Evans has praised the success of the park since it was redeveloped by the town council and opened, saying that it was great to see the play area so busy with parents taking their youngsters there to use the facilities.

"It's busy all the time there and I think we can look to increase the area even more with some extra items of play equipment and some more furniture," he explained.
