Nasty individuals who have dumped their rubbish throughout this area over the past couple of years have done so again - CCTV cameras do exist on a nearby lamp post which could easily be trained on this area to identify the culprits especially if they are coming out of local properties

    Additional photo's taken on 19th April - now TWO WEEKS since first reporting - it's been added to and scattered around by foxes in what is supposed to be a natural area of beauty - Bexley Council should have sorted this out much quicker than this

    Another 5 days have passed and look at it now - starting to smell and totally spoils what should be a lovely walk through to Lesness Abbey - I am unsure why this wasn't picked up at the same time the other rubbish was that I made 2 weeks ago - they were literally yards apart, but Bexley Council must pick and select what they want now!

    So nearly FOUR WEEKS since I first reported this and it's now a real eyesore - rubbish has been spilt out all over the path by wildlife and yesterday, 4 very considerate gents who plotted out on the grass drinking all day dumped their empty bottles and cans there as well - as I already said this encourages further dumping - it smells and will be attracting vermin now - WHAT IS WRONG WITH BEXLEY COUNCIL, it's ridiculous how long this has taken - I feel like holding my council tax payments to be honest - it's disgusting - today's gallery of pictures added below! I've been very specific as to the location of this rubbish tip so they cannot blame not being able to find them - just head for the big iron archway that leads towards lesness abbey when you enter from the bridge that leads from knee hill over to abbey wood station, it's not difficult

    Still open, via questionnaire

  • The council collected the rubbish dumped a mere 10 feet away from the pile in this report within 48 hours of my reporting it separately, yet this pile of stinking, festering rubbish has been added, scattered about by foxes and blocks a footpath now, but it has been left there for FIVE WEEKS - SORT IT OUT PLEASE!!!!!
