Graffiti
vandals in Burnham leave council with clean-up operation

Graffiti
vandals have once again daubed messages along Burnham-On-Sea's
sea wall, prompting a big council clean-up operation.
Scores
of messages have been scrawled along 20 metres of the wall at
the southern end of the Esplanade, near to the town's Sailing
Club, angering both the Town Council and Sedgemoor District Council,
who are left to clean up.
Town
Clerk Eileen Shaw told Burnham-On-Sea.com on Wednesday (August
23rd) that the problem is a reoccurring one and that action would
be taken shortly to remove the messages.
"It does annoy us. It seems to happen so frequently. We'll
have someone look at it during the next few days."
One
nearby resident - who asked not to be named - said: "It's
just senseless, cowardly vandalism."
"The
people doing this know they can't be seen by CCTV cameras or police
patrolling the seafront."
