Fly-tippers dumped a load of waste onto a road just outside Fakenham.

North Norfolk District Council's environmental protection team is investigating after the rubbish was found spread across Trap Lane in the town's north.

The incident was reported by an anonymous poster on a Fakenham Facebook group on Wednesday (January 18). 

The council confirmed it was looking into the fly-tipping.
