Walleys Quarry stench prompts more than 700 complaints in a day
The regulator of a landfill site where noxious gases give off a foul stench has said it has received more than 760 complaints in one day.
Walleys Quarry in Silverdale, Staffordshire, was served a closure notice in November after the Environment Agency (EA) said there was a risk of "significant long-term pollution".
Some residents have linked pollution there to instances of ill health in the area, leading to years of protests, legal rows and EA scrutiny.
