A council says it is not the first time trees, planters and benches at the park have been vandalised
Anyone with any information on the vandalism has been asked to contact police.The trees were planted in May as part of the work to commemorate the Queen's 70-year reign, and improve the north-eastern corner of the park.
The council said it had cleared the damage, installed more security cameras and reported the vandalism to police. The authority's community services spokesman Andrew Woodman described the damage as "an abhorrent act of vandalism." The council said more than eight trees, planters and benches in the park had been damaged or stolen across the year, costing it more than £1,200 in repairs.
