A location is being sought for a project which could end the scourge of graffiti.

Several public sites across Harwich and Dovercourt have been defaced in recent months, many with the same design.

Now police and councillors are working together to give an outlet to the graffiti "artists".

They want to put up a special board, which can be drawn on as often as possible, and have started looking for a suitable place to put it.
