That bus shelter/ horse trough has always been a target for vandals/ graffitti artists. I remember one of my first boyfriends declaring his love for me on that shelter. He also chalked his love for me on random paving slabs to my house on Folkestone road. That was back in the early 80's.
Would be sad to see it go, It has very fond memories for me.
However bus shelters are and always will be a place for youth to meet up. Maybe it is time for the trough to end it's days in a museum.
