Volunteers turned up on Tuesday morning to find the remains of a bonfire in the back garden. The trespassers, who are thought to have held their party early in the Easter weekend, burned a child’s sandpit and uprooted a fence post. Bizarrely, they appeared to have collected up empty cans of beer and left them in a rubbish bag. Dr Mike Pringle of the Richard Jefferies Museum said he understood that young people struggled for places to go. But he said: “I just wish they realised how much hurt it causes. The area where the fire was is used for the toddlers and the mums. They sit there and enjoy it – and it’s [now] completely trashed.”
