Mystery surrounds baby face sculpture found on Bexhill and Eastbourne beaches

Erroll found this baby face sculpture on Eastbourne seafront

The baby face is a cast-like sculpture and was discovered by Erroll Spinks and his partner Louise Batt, in the shingle opposite the View Hotel in Eastbourne.

Erroll said he didn’t know what to do with it and thought about going to the authorities as he was confused as to why it was on the beach.

After an appeal by our sister paper, the Eastbourne Herald, Lyndsey Diamond got in touch to say she had also seen the baby face on the seafront in Bexhill.

Lyndsey said, “I have seen the same baby face in Bexhill seafront about two weeks ago.”

She sent in photos which match the original baby face and said she left the sculpture where she found it.

Lyndsey said, “I took two pictures of the baby face and left it where it was. I have no idea how it appeared on the Eastbourne seafront.”
