Advertising and graffiti
Graffiti
Graffiti is the illegal drawing of images, words or slogans in public places.
We may be able to issue a fine or even prosecute those responsible.
Illegal graffiti on private property should be reported to the owner as it is their responsibility to clear-up. If you are not able to contact them, let us know and we may be able to serve notice on the owners/occupiers of land to remove it.

You will need to tell us:
- a description of the graffiti
