Sky News recently published the results of an investigation into the waste site at Over, as well as two other huge waste sites elsewhere in the UK. "The waste site was initially a licenced tip in the 1960s, and then in the 1990s it became illegal. And speaking about the smell from the site, Rees added: "It doesn't smell on its own, only when it is on fire. ‌However, it's not just the waste site that has been a problem in the area.
