Cropton Park graffiti

John Fareham and John Abbott have arranged with the officers for the removal of offensive and other graffiti from the buildings on Cropton Park.

At least one of the remarks we asked to be removed was specific enough about what its author wished to see happen in a recreational context for us to be unable to quote it here. We therefore photographed that and other matter scrawled on the wall and sent the pictures to the officers who have now sent them on to the relevant members of staff for action. This is not of course the first time we have experienced such problems, and we fear it may not be the last, but we remain, whilst pursuing improvements to park security through other channels, committed to protecting children from the sight of comments and sentiments of a distasteful nature.
