While this looked as if this was a bag of garden waste dumped, it was actually put there by a good Samaritan who has cut the overgrown and over hanging bushes in the walkway between Co-op car park and Dowell Street, a job that East Devon Council have seemingly neglected, despite visiting the site on regular occasions.

Whilst the dumping of waste should not be encouraged, your photograph was a misrepresentation of the issue and the culprits should be congratulated for doing a job the council have failed to do
