Vandals paint face mask on historic monument


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

A giant carving of a figure on the chalk South Downs has had a mask painted over its face.

The addition of the face covering to the Long Man of Wilmington, a protected archaeological site, was discovered on Tuesday, Sussex Police said.

The force said the landmark near Polegate had been defaced by vandals.

Sgt Tom Carter said that while it "may have been perpetrated for humour...the actions that have been taken are unacceptable".
