Graffiti daubed at historic site


from BBC NEWS


Vandals have daubed graffiti on one of Scotland's most historic sites in Orkney.
Staff at Skara Brae arrived at work on Tuesday to find graffiti scribbled on the walls of the Neolithic village.

The site brings in thousands of visitors every year and is one of Orkney's most iconic tourist attractions.

Police are keen to trace a group of visitors who are believed to have been travelling in a silver Hyundai.
