Are people unaware that the whole point of the sunken gardens is as a flood defense? Parking in front of them for autumn storms is just stupid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would simply be up to the owner to claim on their insurance. And you would think that people would have a care to check the forecast before parking in such a vulnerable place. I smile every time I run past those parking bays they've marked out by the sea wall opposite Summerland. What pillock would park his pride and joy there? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
