Dangerous seat

Reported via desktop in the Pavement Defect category anonymously at 21:22, Wed 21 September 2022

Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later

In Station Road, West Wickham, outside the old post office, there is a wooden bench made of metal ends with wooden slats inbetween. One slat is broken and at least one more is sagging. It could collapse under the weight of a person or a child jumping onto, or running along it.
