An inquiry into damage to pillars at the entrance to Aberdeen’s oldest park has failed to pinpoint the cause.
One of the heavy blocks at the Watson Street opening to Victoria Park was knocked over, while the other appeared to have been tampered with.
Council officials said they would investigate the matter after it was reported by local conservation body Friends of Victoria and Westburn Park.
A local authority spokeswoman yesterday said inquiries had not established what happened.
However, repairs have been ordered, and will be carried out soon, she added.
Rosemount and Midstocket ward councillor Bill Cormie said he did not believe vandals were responsible, and expressed fears it may have been a botched attempt at granite theft.
Yesterday, the council spokeswoman said: “We have been unable to establish how the bollards were damaged or by whom.
“A repair will be carried out in due course.”
