Swa clipped with plastic cleats found during condition report.

Found the above on the wall of a pub beer garden during an inspection.It runs horizontally 2m above ffl.

Was going to give it a C3,but a friend thought it has to be fixed asap.Wondered what people on here thought.

    For my money I'd say C3 if it could fall across an escape route (comparable to an indoor socket without 30mA RCD protection to my mind) - but if it would just hang a little lower on the wall or fall to the ground at the foot of the wall and not get in anybody's way during a fire, then a just note at most - no code (doesn't comply but doesn't pose a danger - code 4 in old money).
