Fireworks and a small fire have seen a public toilet in Powys in what has been described as “mindless vandalism”.

Llandrindod Wells Town Council have confirmed that the Station Crescent public toilets have been closed after a fire was lit and fireworks caused damage to fixtures.

The toilets will be closed for the “foreseeable future” until repairs are made or “the culprits are identified”.

The council has called for people to come forward after the incident which also saw the baby changing station destroyed.

A spokesperson for Llandrindod Well Town Council said: “Once again, we have had a spate of mindless vandalism and anti-social behaviour within the Station Crescent Toilets.

“Some of the publishable images are included in this post.

“It is now time for people to come forward and take responsibility for their actions, which are not only causing significant cost to you as Council Tax payers, but danger to anyone with mobility issues who use the toilets.

“Sadly, we have made the decision to close these toilets for the foreseeable future until the culprits come forward or are identified and reparation takes place.”
