A man who took over a patch of abandoned land hoping to live there until he can claim it as his own has said his neighbouring farmer dumped rotting silage bales to deter him.
Neil Parker, a self-confessed "land pirate", moved his caravan onto a small patch of rough land that he says has been neglected for a long time, with "no evidence of activity for decades".
The man, in his 60s, said he has done a lot of research to identify the site on the A487 near Tremain in Ceredigion, Wales, as being available, Wales Online reports.
