PILES of fly-tipped waste were discovered by Dartmoor Rangers after they had been dumped in the popular Haytor and Saddle Tor area earlier this month.
Dartmoor National Park Authority has said its Rangers worked with the police and Highways Agency to clear the rubbish and are now being supported by the Environment Agency and local officers to investigate the incident. People are being encouraged to come forward with any information about the rubbish that was dumped on Dartmoor by calling the 101 phone number, using the log 246 of 3/9/23.
The fly-tips, in a car park, on the common, and on public roads, contained broken furniture, a mattress, building waste and scattered rubble as well as screws and nails which could have caused serious harm to wild animals in the area.
