These shocking images show the horrific scale of fly tipping in one area - as waste recycling centres across the country shut down due to coronavirus. Tonnes of stinking rubbish dumped on an "industrial scale" can be seen piled up over the edge of a lay-by near a beauty spot in Burnley, Lancs. The closure of a majority of tips due to the coronavirus lockdown and social distancing guidelines has resulted in a spate of fly-tipping incidents in recent weeks. In Lancashire alone 16 waste and recycling centres have shut down, including a number within a short distance of the fly-tipping hotspot shown here on the A671.
