FLY-TIPPERS at a hotspot in Shafton run the risk of a serious punishment, Barnsley Council has warned.
The Chronicle revealed last week that yet more dumping has been left on a dead-end road off Brierley Road - described by Shafton Parish Council chairman Dave North as the worst case in Barnsley - and CCTV could be an option to end its problems.
But now Barnsley Council has issued a warning to offenders who have used the location as a place to dump and said those responsible will be dealt with accordingly.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
