Remedial and repair work to the fencing around the play area has also been recently completed following some earlier vandalism.
Councillors were pleased to see that pavement improvements had recently been completed in Ryelands Lane, Kilgetty, and that some attractive landscaping by the local community had recently been carried out near to the entrance to Heritage Gardens, Kilgetty.
