In pictures: St Leonards beach huts covered in graffiti

Graffiti has appeared on more than 40 beach huts in St Leonards.

The huts along Bulverhythe beach have been covered with several graffiti tags.

These pictures were taken this morning (Saturday, August 31), which shows the extent of the graffiti on the huts.

A graffiti tag is a graffiti artist's signature, which is usually a pseudonym or logo, all one colour, that appears in a public place.

A Hastings Borough Council spokesperson said: “We are disappointed that these huts have been vandalised with graffiti. They are privately owned but we have been in touch with hut owners to let them know about the damage.

“We have been liaising with the police and the beach users association over the incident. If anyone has any information about the damage, please either let the council or the police know.”
