A popular monster trail has been forced to move home after the Grange Area Trust raised concerns about protected wildlife.

The trail started in Hazlemere has seen local children add their own monsters making the art project popular in the community.

The area now has particularly heavy footfall and the mud from the footpath is preventing protected wildflowers from peeking through ready for the spring.

It was even entered into Channel 4 show 'Grayson's Art Club' but has had to withdraw as it hadn't been permitted by the Trust.

A new Facebook group ‘Here be Monsters!’ has been created where residents are implored to create monsters and display them outside their house whilst a new location is sourced.

The creator of the group, Stevyn Colgan, said: “Creating monsters and putting them in our homes and gardens to scare away the gloom of lockdowns and pandemics.

“It's simple, make a monster and display him, her, they, it where it can be seen!

“Put a smile on people's faces in your community.”

Monster makers are being asked to pick up their creations from Widmer Fields before the weekend when Stevyn will collect any stragglers.
