The cycle parking racks at the Rec (Alliston Way Play Area) in Whitchurch, which were installed a few years ago with the support of children from Whitchurch Primary School, have been repainted.
The 'hoops' had been relocated from the town centre and had been decorated in bright colours with 'fun' ladybird motifs by a local artist.
Sadly these have been now covered with a plain black paint.
School children helped with the original installation, digging the holes and pouring the concrete, under the guidance and watchful eyes of popular Town Mayor Barry Jackman and Mayoress Sandra Jackman.
It was a lovely day and memories of it will remain for a long time.
The Council have been asked if they will be reinstating the children's work.
