Fence Around Tomb Of Unknown Warrior Considered
11:39 AM, 17 Mar 2006 Print this story
Officials are considering putting a fence around the Tomb of the Unknown Warrior, after skateboarders caused further damage to it.
The tomb, in front of the National War Memorial in Wellington, was gouged and scratched by skateboarders last year, and the damage took eight months to fix.
More scratches have appeared over the last couple of weeks.
The group that advises the government on the National War Memorial says while this damage won't take long to repair, it's a concern that some people are still skating on the tomb.
The National War Memorial Advisory Council says it is considering putting bollards and chains around the tomb at night.
It says security cameras and signs are other options being discussed.
