Residents in Beverley woke up this morning to discover that Coronation Gardens had been vandalised.
The suspects were seen leaving the scene by East Riding of Yorkshire Council worker Brian Walker at around 7.30 this morning.
A messy trail of ‘evidence’ appears to show that the two cows that Brian saw ambling back through North Bar had left Beverley Westwood for a bit of early morning window shopping in St Mary’s Arcade before popping back along the pavement to Coronation Gardens for a breakfast of bedding plants and flowers. The raised beds have been trampled and some of the landscaping damaged.
Brian was doing his best to clean up the cows’ trail of destruction, washing down the walkways as far as his hose would get him.
It seems there were more then TWO cows nivolved. The picture below was sent in by Eleanor Hobson who lives in North Bar and works at Rolandos.
The clean up team in St Marys Shopping Arcade! These two guys were brought in by PPH after the Landlord John Trout called them in!
Mathew, I think these suspects have previous, didn’t they chase you on Westwood?
Please note the gardens are for everyone to enjoy!
is this les ferdinand trying to get back in the limelight he used to be so good at vandalism didn’t he get a blue peter badge for it
Well, one could argue that they were vandalised by the local/town council with their horrible modern aggregates. There used to be chickens in there when I was a tiddler. Mitz.
clearly there were more then two, I notice the gate were closed tonight on St Marys Arcade though been told they normally do, gates at the garden are still open!
There were 37 cows counted in total!
eleanor who was the ring leader, could you pick them out of a line up?
Mitzi, one could argue your daft point, if only your facts were right, as it was the unelected Civic Society working with ERYC that revamped Coronation Gardens. I’d trust the cow’s comments over yours any day!
Who is going to pay for the damage and clean up operation?
On the bright side, what they left behind might do the roses some good!
do you think it was pre cow culated!
Well there just couldn’t have been enough grass for them to eat on the Westwood
