A 35-year-old man who was fined £23,000 for five fly-tipping offences around Nursling and Baddesley has been ordered to pay another £540. Mitchell Cooper, of Hillyfields in Nursling, was found to have fly-tipped waste including two TV sets and bags of waste at the Broadlands Estate in Romsey on April 20 last year. He was ordered to pay a total of £23,072.75 in fines and costs after being sentenced at Southampton Magistrates Court in January. In a Facebook post, Cllr Nick Adams-King, deputy leader of Test Valley Borough Council, said Cooper tried to appeal his sentence on Friday April 16 but was ordered to pay an extra £540 instead.
