A cash-strapped council has been slammed for spending tens of thousands of pounds on US-style parklets that have been described as “naff sun loungers”.
Lincolnshire County Council erected the brightly-coloured wooden seating and decking as part of a scheme to encourage people to spend more time in the town.
Believed to have cost £60,000, the small seating areas - a common sight in the US - are the first of their kind in the UK and installed in the historic market town in Louth, Lincolnshire.
