The Western Telegraph understands that the lighthouse helter skelter slide outside the Ocean Lab is being taken away today (Tuesday) after a price of £10,000 was quoted to repair it. The news has left local families up in arms, both with the fact that no consultation took place on the future of the slide and that such a popular piece of play equipment is being removed.
