Household waste disguised as hay bales dumped in Essex

Hundreds of tonnes of household and business waste has been disguised as plastic-wrapped hay, straw or silage bales and dumped on farmland in Essex.

About 1,500 tonnes of waste was discovered on the land in Purfleet.

Three men from east London, aged 19, 23 and 47, have been arrested on suspicion of depositing and storing waste on an unpermitted site.

They were interviewed by Environment Agency officers and bailed until 10 July pending further inquiries.

The Environment Agency said it was concerned other sites in Essex may be targeted in a similar way.

The agency believes people are making huge sums of money by charging to take away household or business waste but then dumping it at remote rural locations.

remote rural locations

In the UK, this means it's a mile or two from the nearest dwelling, right?

Here in England we have lust fields and fecund hedgerows for as far as the eye can see.
...or, at least, as far as my eyes can see.

YEah about that, if not possibly less, but the important point is nobody goes ether or puts their nose in beeeswax.
