As well as the churchyard, at the back of the Church is an emergency exit, which is also used for disabled access. As you can see, the local "elite" have been at work! What a comparison to the wonderfully engraved headstones only a few feet away. I suppose we are lucky that these, at least, remain unvandalised (for now).
Thank you all so very much for your comments and interest in my latest uploads, and I may have some news on the young William Bulmer quite soon.

I sort of think ,from your picture, that this looks like an art form
All the kids that have written on it just want to be on something
Thankgoodness they arent defacing the gravestones or even the surrounding brickwork

barbara's quite right the brickwork remains untouched... Vandals with an arty streak, "Ridiculous"
LOL,
Martin.
An emergency exit from a cemetery, love the idea...
The door is set in such a clean, pristine frame. There's a lot to look at in an apparently simple picture.

Should be easy enough to identify them as they have all left their names or aliases. They don't come much more intelligent than that 
Bill
wonderful texture on the door, you can use it for several photoshop effects, lovely composition too.
Emergency exit to a church, eh?!! Nice bit of stonework surrounding the door - it's to be hoped that doesn't get defaced when the door's full. Well spotted and captured, Carol.

Looks like theres only a bit of paint left! maybe they will repaint it then destroy it again. Great shot, fantastic contrast.

Mmmmm.... Not so clever are they all signing their names ! But will anyone do anything about it - NO !
Well observed shot anyway Carol.

I agree it's pretty unusual, but with everything confined to the black space, and the outer stonework untouched, I think it makes a wonderfully surreal image. A 21st century version of prehistoric cave art? 
As a photo I love it, as vandalism we can do without it. But a great capture and so unusual. I wish you'd put it in a competition of some sort...if you slightly blur your vision, the main capital letters look like Greek lettering!
Dave.
Thank you so much for your award Dave - it is a lovely surprise and really kind of you. If I find a competition on graffiti I will enter it!
Carol
The shot says it all about todays youth !! Very arty image....
