OLD car tyres and other waste have been fly-tipped at a beauty spot near Stroud.

Stroud District wardens found the tyres dumped by a layby in the Harescombe area today.

The wardens had only just cleared rubbish from the same layby last week.

A spokesman from Stroud District Council said: “We clear more than 900 fly tips a year and we will prosecute where the evidence is strong enough to be brought before a court.”
