Rubber dumped, 13th September
Bags of rubbish Reported but not found by collectors so it’s still there. It’s at the top of the lane where cars park to go on the footpath into the woods near Orchard Portman. Directions: from the main staple fitzpaine road turn into Orchard Portman lane, past the farms, over the stream bridge, past the blocked off polo field entrance on your left, go along about half a mile then turn left next to the Mill House into the lane, go up to the top of the lane. It’s a dead end. This is where the piles of rubbish have been dumped by an absolute moron. Thank you ??
