Taking to the Facebook page Marlow Life to share their anger, one user said: “With the lovely weather, people are making the most of the lovely walks through Little Marlow but unfortunately the increase in people is causing an increase in rubbish.

“Please if bins are full could you take your rubbish/picnic leftover home with you and not leave it on top of full bins.

“This has become a daily occurrence now and it is such a shame.”

Another added: “The fallout from the debris of plastic pint cups around town is reminiscent of the day after the end of a festival!

“People please pick up after yourselves.”

Kamil Dziki, who saw the unhygienic state the High Street was in, then sarcastically posted in the group, ‘You can say Marlow is a busy town with lots of tourists coming to visit us.’

Sandie Anderson commented: “The amount of rubbish in the High Street and around all bins are overflowing what is going on mind noticed a lot of takeaway cups floating around such a mess everywhere."

Greg Brooks then added: “Absolutely disgusting people should take their rubbish home with them if the bins are full.”
