Anger as much-loved Sneinton park vandalised after community worked hard to restore it

A community has hit back at the "horrible vandalism" at their beloved park. The Lees Hill Park Play Area, named after the street where it is located in Sneinton, has been rejuvenated by neighbours in the area in the last two years.

Plants and flowers were installed at the playground and on the pavement of Lees Hill Street in a bid to transform the hidden road into a 'little arboretum'. The community project was started by the area's most prolific plant-owners Kathryn Cooper, an artist and gardener living near the park.

But in recent weeks neighbours say that their beloved park has been vandalised. Flowers and part of the fence were destroyed and the soil was disturbed, causing anger in the community.
