Cannabis farm waste has been dumped along with a pile of other rubbish at a scenic countryside spot in a Harborough village.

The drugs debris was fly-tipped among the stack of general waste on a grass verge by a farm field gate on Sulby Road in Welford.

Cannabis plant stalks, soil, fertiliser tubs and extractor fans were all dumped by the quiet rural road, Harborough District Council said today.
