POLICE in Nelson are appealing for witnesses after vandals caused £300 worth of damage to three separate sections of Marsden Golf Club.

DC Ray Entwistle of Colne CID said someone had put around 100 divots in the ground and had used an instrument to dig a hole in the turf.

He said: "The people at the golf club have said they have had a history of juvenile nuisance on the course so if anyone saw anything we would like them to contact us."

The damage was made at the 12th, 13th and 14th holes on the course overnight on Wednesday.

Anyone with information should contact Nelson CID on 01282 472643.
