MORE needs to be done to prevent fly-tipping in a town's 'beauty spot', local residents have said.

The Leader previously reported that the scenic waterfall in Flint Mountain was left blighted by rubbish.

However, walkers were once again left 'disgusted' as yet more mounds of rubbish have been thrown around.

Regular walker Molly Perry said: "It's disgusting and more should be done to prevent it.

"There also must be some alternative ways to stop it up there perhaps a fence or CCTV."
