It appears the council are worried about upsetting people Brighton now remove at 3 months The shrine in Vange has been updated with framed photos and several more large floral tributes The marble seat in Clayhill road has a collection of wilted flowers possibly waiting updating.

The problem is still there though it appears no new tributes have appeared in the last few weeks is it now time to clear the area up.

The shrine is still there it has been added to and is looking a little tatty as well as tacky am I the only person who thinks their should be a time limit on allowing roadside shrines

Within the recent couple of weeks this shrine has approximatly tripled in size with more floral tributes the noticeboards moved to face the path .I have raised its presence in casual conversation locally with most comments saying it's been there too long needs remval.
