As if to prove the theory that graffiti begets graffiti, one of the stones in the Nine Ladies of Stanton Moor has been carved into yet again. The damage was spotted on Wednesday by a local who has informed the Police.

This is the third time in a couple of years this site has been targeted, yet again seemingly by an ignorant visitor to the site. Perhaps its time for the authorities to consider more proactive measures including cctv to stop such flagrant abuse.

I was there on Monday for a short time and didn’t spot any damage then but there we people picnicking and even camping very near to the site. Not that I am blaming these people in particular, but you are bound to have this sort of mindless vandalism where sites are popular and certain individuals have no respect. Doesn’t stop me being annoyed about it though.
