Villagers vexed by mystery of the sauvignon blanc fly-tipper

Most of the bottles are Villa Maria, which costs £10.75 in the nearest supermarket and is said to pair well with seafood and tangy goat’s cheese.

Villagers, however, have warned about the danger to runners, horse riders and farmers who cut the long grass on the verges for hay.

Simon Robinson, 52, described the discoveries as “bizarre”.

“I know there’s sort of a fly-tipping epidemic,” he said, “but that takes the biscuit, doesn’t it?”

East Riding of Yorkshire Council said it was “not aware of a particular issue around this area”, having received a report in August 2025, but nothing since.
