A swastika and penis have been etched into the turf at bowling green next to 19th Century church. 

The offensive graffiti appeared on the grass next to St Andrew’s Church, in Worthing.

It is not clear when the anti-Semitic daubing appeared or who the perpetrator is. Sussex Police have been approached for comment. 

It’s not the first time the offensive graffiti has appeared in the large seaside town this year.

A swastika appeared daubed onto the wall of an alleyway, near Durrington Infant School in May, as reported by Worthing Herald.

At the time, Labour’s Lee Cowen told the local newspaper: ‘A swastika is the most overt symbol of antisemitism and is often used to cause maximum offence.’

‘It’s a sign of growing divisions in our country, giving rise to far right groups who seek to target all minorities.

‘There was a report recently about the shocking levels of holocaust denial in the UK, the symptom of a failing education system where historical facts are being challenged by conspiracy theories. We cannot allow this to continue.’
