Fly-tippers dump ‘mountain’ of waste in Oxfordshire field

Area's MP says it would cost more than local council's annual budget to remove the 10-metre high pile of waste

Fly-tippers have dumped a mountain of illegal waste" in Oxfordshire so large that removing it could cost more than the local council's annual budget, the area's MP has said.

Hundreds of tonnes of waste, stacked 10 metres high, appeared in a field between the River Cherwell and the A34 near Kidlington. One charity called the huge dump of rubbish an environmental catastrophe unfolding in plain sight".
