Tenterden Town Council says the rider also drove across the football pitch.

But thankfully, the damage caused has been described as “minimal”.

In a Facebook post shared today, the town council said: “Last night at about 7.30pm an unauthorised quad bike rode across Tenterden Recreation Ground and proceeded to make doughnuts on our grassed area near the toilets.

“As you can see from the photos, a large area was damaged.

“They also drove across the football pitch, but luckily the marks were minimal.”
