It wouldn't hurt to. I wouldn't be an arse and go for compensation unless it was something more serious though...

It was just so they know then if it happens again to someone else they are already aware of it or can maybe see if they can get rid of it
As for compensation wouldn't dream of it as so far just a sore leg

tell them. And when you feel a bit better, 10 mins with a stiff broom and some iron sulphate or Jeyes fluid will solve the problem.

Yes, please do tell them, someone more fragile may come along and suffer the same thing. And tell them you slipped and fell. It may get logged as a low priority job otherwise.

At this time of year, I wonder if there is some kind of leak keeping the paving wet.
