On Wednesday (July 28) Mid Sussex Neighbourhood Policing Inspector Darren Taylor said the ‘lazy and unenvironmental lot’ had dumped furniture and rubbish on Broxmead Lane in Bolney and Jobs Lane in Hickstead.

Inspector Taylor said the flytippers showed ‘no consideration for the area, residents or motorists’.
