Facilities at Channel View East in Bexhill were closed on January 5, after being subjected to “vandalism in the form of graffiti.”
They reopened yesterday, after being cleaned by Bexhill Town Council.
A spokesperson for Bexhill Town Council said on January 5: “Today we received reports that, unfortunately, Channel View East men’s public conveniences have again been subjected to vandalism in the form of graffiti.
“As a result, these public conveniences will be closed until lunchtime tomorrow (Tuesday, January 6) while we undertake the necessary cleaning procedures.
“We apologise for this inconvenience and thank the vast majority of users who have treated these facilities with respect since their refurbishment.”
The Channel View East toilets are maintained by Bexhill Town Council and are open daily from 7am to 7pm.
This latest incident is not the first time they have been shut due to antisocial behaviour.
The men’s toilets in Channel View East were previously closed due to vandalism in October 2025, as were the disabled toilets in Devonshire Square, also in Bexhill.
A spokesperson for Bexhill Town Council said at the time: “Over the weekend, several of our public conveniences were unfortunately subject to severe vandalism, including graffiti, destruction of fixtures and attempts to light small fires.
“As a result, the disabled facilities at Devonshire Square and men’s facilities at Channel View East will be closed until further notice, pending repairs.
“We understand that toilet closures can be frustrating, so on this occasion, we are posting pictures to illustrate the scale of the damage our contractors are regularly faced with.
“We also appreciate that the vast majority of users are respectful to our facilities and find the frequency of vandalism just as disappointing as we do.”
