A man has been fined for fly-tipping a huge pile of waste as well as five fridges in Aylesbury.

The waste was from a cafe refurbishment near Quainton, Bucks, in January. 

The man claimed that the waste was a 'temporary measure only' and that he had arranged a lawful disposal.

After investigation however, the man was fined a total of £3,416 at High Wycombe Magistrated Court on August 19.

It is the latest in a number of incidents of fly-tipping that have resulted in large fines in recent weeks, including a man who was fined over £1,300 after waste was fly-tipped on the side of a quiet Bucks road and a man who was fined after an estimated 25 loads of waste was dumped at a Bucks beauty spot.
