Having raised the issue of the Pocklington Dilapidated George Street Planter yesterday I learn today that Pock Town Council (PTC) had planned all along to replace said planter today. Honest, guv.

An ERYC officer has informed me:

“I refer to your e-mail regarding planters on George Street in Pocklington, I can confirm the planters belong to Pocklington Town Council. I have been informed the planters were due to be replaced today with smaller HD plastic ones, however due to the weather this will be completed early next week.”

Surely this is merely coincidence.
