A local resident is going to patrol a memorial area over the bank holiday weekend after reports of campers parking at the site in recent weeks. Makeshift barbecues have reportedly been abandoned on the site and chemical toilet waste from motorhomes allegedly discharged at the memorial area, created to remember men who worked and died in a Gwynedd slate quarry.
In one case, locals claimed a visitor urinated on a dedication stone at the Allt Ddu memorial area near Dinorwic quarry, which is the world's second largest slate quarry.
Rocks were placed around the circular site last year to try and prevent parking, but it is claimed those were moved over the Easter holiday, NorthWalesLive reports.
