What a mess they have made of Memorial Square


Memorial Square in Kingston needed money spent on it. They have been spending over £500,000 upgrading the pavings but the contractor has made a total pigs ear of it. It was due to be finished in early 2006. Boards then went up saying it would be finished by the end of April 2006. They missed that target and then went away for the May Merrie. They are back now trying to finish it. But even when it is finished the standard of the work is rubbish. Badly filled in holes, uneven pavings - I just hope the Council is doing something about this appalling state of affairs.

I absolutely agree Kevin, the finish is just appalling. Blobs of cement everywhere. Is it really so very difficult to lay paving to a professional standard? Great idea to get it done in the first place but by doing things on the cheap (if you can call £500k cheap) they've made a hash of it. Its like a New Malden High Street on a small scale.
