Cllr John Harrison, executive member for culture, delivery and public protection, said: “We are aware of rubbish being fly-tipped outside the Royal British Legion and are in the process of discussing this matter with environmental health officers and the building owner to ensure it is removed.
“Fly-tipping, which is the illegal dumping of any waste or rubbish anywhere other than at a licensed waste disposal site, is a serious issue. Discarded items are not only an eyesore but can pose a serious public health risk, and can be very harmful to wildlife and the environment.
