We’re sending you this message to let you know that the hand rail is not the property of Lincolnshire County Council Highways Department. Being ornate and brass it is not a utility handrail. We are sorry but we are unable to assist further. The Cosy Club may have further information. Thank you for reporting this matter.

State changed to: not the council's responsibility
