Villagers in UK furious after farmer dumps 30ft high stacks of hay bales outside their homes
- 6 years ago
Wealthy villagers have accused a farmer of using "bullying" tactics after 30ft high stacks of hay bales were dumped outside their homes following a planning row.
Thirty tons of hay were piled up on trailers in a field adjacent to the back gardens of several £500,000 detached properties.
The villagers believe they were put there deliberately after a planning application by farmer Richard Barton to run a waste processing site was rejected.
Resident Peter Shaw, 55, said the bales were stacked behind his house on Cole Road, Ockbrook, Derbys., last Thursday.
