Police say they have spoken to officials at Ripon Cathedral and are appealing for information about the graffiti, which appeared opposite the historic site on Thursday night.
Police have appealed for information after graffiti appeared on a wall opposite Ripon Cathedral.
The daubed lettering, targeting the Conservatives with an expletive, appeared over night on Minster Road in the heart of the city.
It is just metres from the historic Cathedral, on the opposite side of the road.
A spokesman for North Yorkshire Police said:
"The graffiti was reported to police by a member of the public around 7am this morning. Officers are liaising with individuals at the cathedral about this. Anyone with information that could help police establish the full circumstances of the incident should call 101 quoting reference NYP–28082020-068."
