VANDALS who damaged artworks in Boscombe have been condemned by a councillor.
Philip Stanley-Watts said the damage to a sculpture of a palm tree outside KFC in Sea Road and other pieces in the vicinity had been a blow for nearby residents and local artists.
"They bent it all out of shape. The work team tried to bend it back but it still looks a bit done in," he said.
"This is a big thing for some people around here.
"A lot of these sculptures seem a bit tired anyway. We are trying to get local businesses together to help maintain them."
He said he would put the idea forward at the next Boscombe Business Association meeting on February 21.
