Install bench in front of St Thomas Hall

From "Environmental Improvement Programme 2023-24: New bidding round"

Go to the project

This area is a very pleasant place to look at and it could be enjoyed even more if there was a place to sit. Anyone attending an event at St Thomas Hall could have a sit down and a chat afterwards or before, and indeed anyone living in the area could meet for a chat with a neighbour or enjoy a rest after a stroll.

This area of Coleridge is noticeable bereft of places to sit; there are very few benches currently.
