CAN I please urge anyone who sees people dumping rubbish in unauthorised places, such as play areas, parks and recreation areas to take down the vehicle number, take a photograph on a mobile phone if possible and then pass it to the local council?

Prosecution seems the only way to discourage such dumping.

Whitcliffe, on the edge of Ludlow, is being badly hit by thoughtless people who will not drive to the dump at Craven Arms.

I am afraid that I predicted this when Shropshire Council thoughtlessly closed the Ludlow tip site.
