Echo readers have quickly solved the mystery of the 'Banksy' style graffiti at Dawlish. And the consensus is that it definitely not a Banksy. A reader took pictures of the graffiti at the railway bridge in Dawlish at the weekend and said she was told it had just appeared. But readers on Facebook quickly informed the Echo that the work was by NME and appeared last year. Works by the acclaimed street artist have randomly appeared at locations across the UK for years. And when they are authenticated they can sell for millions to private collectors. The striking black and white stencil image, which is clearly in the style of Banksy, shows a young boy holding a catapult. Gina Kennedy, who took these pictures, said: "Having seen the artwork myself, it does look remarkably like a Banksy piece."
