A Remembrance Day ‘Tommy’ has been mysteriously damaged beyond repair.
Silhouette figures of First World War soldiers were installed across the town by Watford Borough Council and Murrill Construction Ltd at the end of October, as part of an art installation called ‘There But Not There’ run by military charity Remembered.
This afternoon , local councillors shared the “sad” news that the statue outside the St Albans Road Post Office had been damaged.After it was reported, the Tommy was assessed to see if it could be patched up but it was decided that it needed to be removed for safety purposes. Labour councillor Dennis Watling said the “terrible” damage could have been caused by many things, including members of the public walking or cycling into it by accident.The silhouettes are put up in the town each year. In 2022 the one on the Kingswood estate was “trampled” and vandalised, while in 2021 a Tommy was kicked and stolen within 24 hours of being put up in the Meriden area.
