A couple have been fined more than £800 for an "eyesore" and "foul smelling" rubbish dump in their own back garden.
Thomas Bell and Helen Milburn chucked piles of food waste, household rubbish and furniture in the rear yard of their rented property in Darlington..
Horrified neighbours reported the issues to Darlington Borough Council after becoming fed up of the 'strong foul smell' coming from the yard.
