A MOTORBIKE has been removed from the Brook, home to Dawlish's famous black swans.

Dawlish's Waterfowl Wardens, alongside staff from Teignbridge District Council, discovered the vehicle in the early hours on Saturday, April 15.

Upon removal of the motorbike there was, fortunately, no sign of a petrol leak and only a very small amount of spilt oil.

It is understood that the police have been notified.
