The wooden hedgehog at local green space Deepdene is looking like it needs some fairly urgent attention.
It appears to be rotten, although it may also have been affected by some vandalism. It also looks dangerous, with nails and screws visible and a large hole in the top of the structure.
The issue has been reported to Southampton City Council.
