He said: “Over the last few weeks and months, Brockwell and Ashgate have seen Mesh graffiti tags appear all over – on walls, pavements, kerb stones and bins.

“For it to end is going to require the police to work with schools and young people to get a good dialogue going.
“Of course, another route would be for the council to harness local young energy and set up clear graffiti walls at designated spots across the borough as lots of other places have.”
Derbyshire Constabulary has advised Coun Fordham to report the graffiti to the county council.
