I'm against fly-tipping of any sort and this is a perfect example. It worries me that the people who approved this are running my town.

These 'items' are nor practical as seating, they are somewhat of an eyesore and are definitely not suitable as a long lasting ans sustainable piece of furniture.

These ugly constructions take the space previously used for popular market stalls. The council are therefore losing further revenue!

They look like a pile of left over slabs and certainly not suitable for sitting on! What a waste of council tax payers money......better use for it... mend the pot holes in the roads around Kidderminster & Stourport.

Poor design....too low, no drainage, sharp edges, slippery....and above all already the middle record missing from some of them making them look an eye sore! I'm all for unusual designs but there is far better out there already. #poordecision

The bench design is unsightly, too low, the granite material is too cold in inclement weather, the design will impede surface water drainage and attract detritus. The exposed edges present a safety hazard to visually impaired and small children

I totally agree that these are a hazard, and are not suitable for seating. If someone should slip, the overhang will break some ones leg.
How they ever got past health and safety heaven knows? The whole idea is totally stupid, there has never been a music heritage in this town, apart from some well know bands playing like in all other towns across the country, so you can't lay claim to such a suggestion. What really made Kidderminster was Carpets. That's what this town was built on, and for Mr Campion, as well as the others they should talk to the real people of Kidderminster people who's memories are much longer than some of those have been alive.

My disabled daughter walked in to 1 on Tuesday and cut her leg. They are dangerous, sharp croner. They are sill and ugly for a high traffic area.

These seats are too low and look like a pile of discarded hoarding from afar. They have no back rests and are not useful to old people. Furthermore the corners are sharp and could cause a hazard.

Unbelievably ugly, and have no place in our town

I was horrified when I went into town last week to Lloyds bank to find these ugly, unsightly piles of what could only be called junk littering the walk way, who on earth could think these are attractive or useful as seating. The sooner they are removed the better.

They are a health hazard with sharp corners, too low to sit on and they are ugly. If they are supposed to represent vinyl records then why aren't they round?

I agree with the reasons given as to why these items should be removed.
