Only the scorchmark on the equipment, and the sand on the surface give any clue.
On Monday, reader and friend of the blog Rose Maria Burnell pointed out that the play equipment area in Holland Park, Brownhills was out of use following fire damage due to vandalism.
Passing by this evening, I took a look – and to my surprise, the surface has been fixed and the playground is back in use. Well done to the rangers, technicians and all involved – that really is a quick solution.
Thanks to the Council and to the Greenspaces team.
The fix is excellent – but in order to prevent the vandalism happening again, it would be useful to catch the culprits. If you have any information, saw anyone light a fire or know who the idiots that did this are, please do contact local police on 101, or drop me a line and I’ll pass the information on.

Nice job – well done!
