Anger
as Highbridge's historic town clock is damaged by vandals
 Highbridge's
historic three-sided clock has been struck by vandals who have
smashed one of its glass faces, as pictured here.
Highbridge town councillor Joe Leach told Burnham-On-Sea.com on
Monday (June 30th): "It's very sad that someone would damage
this wonderful clock, which has been a part of Highbridge's history
for many decades."
"I
reassure everyone that work is due to start shortly on getting
it repaired. It can't stay in its current condition for very long."
"It
is one of the few parts of 'old Highbridge' that has stayed untouched
during recent years."
He
urged anyone with information about how the structure was damaged
to contact police through the usual Crimestoppers telephone number
on 0800 555 111.
