Fly tipping a major problem in Cornwall
The dumping of household goods in a Cornish beauty spot - one in which seals shelter from the sea - was heartbreaking for the community group that works to protect it.
Delia Webb from Friends of Portheras Cove - says some of the team almost cried when they saw what had been done to the world heritage site.
Fly tipping in Cornwall has increased by 40% in the past year.
In the last 12 months nearly 5,000 incidents were reported compared with just under 3,500 for the year before.
