A family is moving home due to the "rotten" stench of an overgrown bin alley where rubbish hasn't been collected for a month.
Michael Cowhig, 36 and originally from Whiston, moved to Picton with his wife as renters a decade ago, buying their house after eight years. They love having everything they need on their doorsteps, with The Mystery park and a sense Picton is "thriving again" thanks to community initiatives.
But they've had enough of flytipping and the piles of rubbish behind their house. Michael said: "It's not fair on the residents who want to live in an area where it's nice and you can walk out without walking through flies."
