Captain Cook's cottage has been vandalised with anti-Australia Day graffiti for a second year in a row.
The historic building was spray-painted with slogans including "26th Jan Australia's shame" and "F*** Aus Day".Council workers have arrived to clean-off the paint and police are inspecting the damage.
The building was vandalised with similar slogans in February last year.
Anarchist blog "disaccords" claimed responsibility for the 2013 graffiti, saying in an online statement the denial of Australia's "brutal" history was nowhere more evident than on Australia Day.
"This is why we trashed the absurd shrine to genocide, Captain Cook's Cottage, with paint," the bloggers wrote last year.
