A local shared a photograph of a billboard in the town that has been altered by the elements, tearing off strips with an uncanny artistic flair.

She said: "Strips have come away revealing old posters underneath and by serendipity this marvellous collage appeared!

"It is a work in progress because with every day the weather takes it toll and new collages are created!

"We thought it might amuse the public."

We love it. But what do you think? Does this constitute art? Or do you just see an ugly mess?

It is certainly a talking point in the town.
