Graffiti cleaned from Cumberland-Grosvenor ginnel

Graffiti is a persistent problem in Headingley. Recently, a resident reported that the ginnel between Cumberland Road and Grosvenor Road was badly affected by graffiti on the lamp-posts and the stone walls. We went to check it out and they were right! Every lamp-post was plastered with graffiti, and there were numerous scrawls on the stone wall too.

We reported this to the council’s graffiti team, who cleaned up the stone walls and asked Southern Electric (who look after the street lighting in Leeds) to deal with the lamp-posts. These pictures show the results – much better, I’m sure you’ll agree!
