Connah’s Quay and Shotton’s war memorial has been brought back to life

A TOWN’S war memorial has been brought ‘back to life’ after vandals defaced it with an offensive symbol.

It was discovered last month that vandals had scrawled a swastika on the Connah’s Quay and Shotton war memorial, which caused outrage across the town.

Despite being cleaned by Flintshire Council’s Streetscene officers, the outline of the swastika could still be seen.

The Leader has previously reported that a national company, based in Kent, offered to clean the graffiti and the memorial free of charge.
