A Wiltshire man was ordered to pay £660 after he pleaded guilty to fly-tipping, following the discovery of a dumped bed and bags of rubble at Kingsfield Lane, Longwell Green.
Samuel Wardle, 48, of Hungerford, appeared at Bristol Magistrates Court on September 29. He was fined £320 and ordered to pay costs of £340.
The bed and bags were found fly-tipped on 26 March 2025. CCTV captured the waste being dumped by a male in a vehicle that was found to belong to Wardle.
He was interviewed at the council offices where he stated that his parents lived in Kingswood, South Gloucestershire, and he had disposed of the waste on Kingsfield Lane during one of his visits. He was summonsed for the offence of fly-tipping.
