not being funny but nearly all of the ones i saw were coming apart,that is from the car park to gibson mill and the car park up to crimsworth dean.
as a joiner i would say the wood was still 'green' and not dried out,also as the wood is thick maybe the screws are too small?
the one by gibson mill with the blue tit's in is falling apart the most.
