A grocery business that fly-tipped its rubbish has been fined after a council took it to court.

Season Fruit and Veg Ltd, which trades as Slough Green Grocers, on High Street, Slough, dumped waste behind The Curve last October.

Slough Borough Council's warnings to move the pile were ignored and fixed penalty notices were left unpaid so the case was taken to magistrates.

The company, from Lynhurst Road, Uxbridge, was fined 拢1,000 and ordered to pay 拢250 compensation and 拢250 costs during a hearing at Slough Magistrates' Court on 17 May.
