NAZI symbols were discovered on a bench at a beauty spot on the Bromyard Downs.

The graffiti on the bench in the main car park was found last Tuesday by a volunteer work party.

Litter was also left on the ground nearby and another bench in the layby viewpoint was similarly defaced.

As well as the Nazi symbols the offender had also written “Brom Boyz.”

Bromyard Downs Common Association [BDCA] secretary Lauren Smith said: “This, with the littering, is a big problem on the Downs which is really frustrating for the BDCA and volunteers who give up their spare time to try and maintain Bromyard Downs.”

The police have been informed of the vandalism.

If you have any information regarding the graffiti call police on 101 or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.

BDCA manage Bromyard Downs on behalf of Herefordshire Council for all residents, common rights holders and Bromyard town.
