Quality work probably from Sunderland illuminations.

Was with the kids in the park today and noticed some T&E snaking up a tree. Loving the cable clips. The second piccy the cable goes underground and reappears just by the small rock to the right.
Although it's fenced off I'm inclined to contact the council about it. Shoddy.

Disgraceful.....no sign of metal fire clips!

Probably some sparks kid using his dads scrap as a swing - he’ll get a belt when he gets home (pardon the pun)!

It's a wonder it is still there, 20 miles north it would be in the scrappy.

The screws are the fire clips Kev! The joint is what I noticed first. Should have had a voltstick in my pocket. Slightly ironically the part of the park where this is is also where the best display was last autumn. It was for a well thought out projector show. I can't recall exactly where the projector was though.

I was in Sunderland last week and I must say the docks beside that new bridge are quite spectacular, view wise.

It is a nice part of the world in a lot of ways. There are accessible sea caves and sea arches ten mins from me for instance. And as you know there are some lovely places not far away up north.
The new bridge is growing on me too. Felt they cut corners going for the cheaper option at first but I do like it's simple functionality a lot now.
I'm working in Newbiggin all day tomorrow and Sunday. Would prefer heading a bit further to druridge bay...

I must admit I was impressed with the view from where I was .
You are on my doorstep practically tomorrow.
I used to love working north , as you say it is quite spectacular up the coast. Alnwick and Bamburgh Castle are outstanding . Homes to some classic films , including Harry Potter.

Probably not live and they just couldn’t be bothered to take the cable down ...?

Great pics ! I'd send Council a quick mail for sure. I reckon it's a good candidate That's bad enough to for our Rubbish Work page

Definitely wants reporting just in case it's live. Just think if something happens in the future.

ruston · Apr 6, 2019

Even if it is not live now it has been at some time . They won't of put that up for fun.

Placing out of reach, was it in a supervised location?

Haha! The cable is not in touching distance unless you climb over a fence, and just behind the tree it drops down by
around 7ft to a small pond.
I might have to go back with a volt stick duct taped to a pole to see if it seems to be live!
